Business Intelligence/Grafana: Add metric for service check

8 votes

We would like to have a metric for the service check that monitors the state of a BI aggregation.

The metric should be just an integer with values 0 for OK, 1 for WARN and 2 for CRIT.

This would make it possible to visualize a BI aggregation on a Grafana dashboard (which shows only metrics and not states).

The alternative would be that the Grafana Checkmk plugin is able to display servcie states.

Yes, a general approach to visualize service states in Grafana would also work.

For the specific "problem" I created a very quick extension, available here: https://github.com/HeinleinSupport/check_mk_extensions/tree/cmk2.1/bi_aggr_metric
