via the special agent

  1. To get the availability in any case, you need to create a dummy BI Host with the following settings:

    Screenshot of IP address family set to No IP. Checkmk agent set to Configured API integrations, no Checkmk agent.

    .

  2. Now you can create a so-called datasource program to monitor your aggregations. Please insert your dummy host in the Host conditions.

    Note

    Filter aggregations: You can filter by a regex or an aggregation group for a specific BI aggregation

    Aggregation assignments: You should remove the explicit host when using that option. With this option, the piggyback mechanism will be used. So every affected host will get a service.

    To debug the special agent, please follow the manual: BI special agent


    .

  3. After a discovery of the host, you will see your aggregation as a service. Now you can check the Availability for this aggregation.
