You can use it with command line configuration. There the old style main.mk file will be edited and with calling "cmk -R" you generate classic Nagios checks and then restart the core. The templates are needed for this check generation. If you configure with the GUI then in the background the same commands are issued and the configuration is generated.
What is also a great help is to configure a host inside WATO and then take a look at the generated .mk files inside /omd/sites/<your-site>/etc/check_mk/conf.d/wato/hosts.mk and rules.mk Then it is possible if you prefer a hand made configuration to take theses files as an example how to build your own .mk files and generate the Nagios config with "cmk -R". The following link gives a short explanation what are these .mk files are doing - https://mathias-kettner.de/checkmk_configfiles.html br Andreas Zach LaCelle <[email protected]> schrieb am Di., 22.
