1 title: Inotify - Monitor file system operations
7 This check evaluates the data reported by the mk_inotify plugin on the target system.
8 This plugin requires the python module pyinotify to be installed.
9 Inotify allows you to monitor certain file operations on the target system. E.g. you will
10 get a message for specific operations like {access}, {open}, {create}, {delete}, {modify}.
11 In the agent bakery you can configure the files and folders to be monitored and specify in
12 which operation you are interested in.
13 You can configure levels relating to the age of the last operation.
14 So you can check last modified age for example.
17 One check is created for every explictely specified file and folder in the mk_inotify.cfg.
