Service Checks

Quacker is fluent in a wide variety of protocols, and may be easily extended to add new protocols.

  <servers>
    <services>
      <serviceChecks>
        <!-- Service checks go here -->
          <serviceCheck>
          </serviceCheck>
      </serviceChecks>
    </services>
  </servers>

In Quacker configuration, servers are groups of services. Each serviceChecks element may contain more than one serviceCheck.

The protocol of a serviceCheck is specified by the type element.

Basic types include:

• Ping
• Munin
• HTTP
• LDAP
• XMPP
• SVN
• SMB
• Database
• Cache

Special types include:

• Dependency
• Script
