README.SUSE for monitoring-plugins

== Features and documentation ==

Please refer to the upstream documentation on 
* http://www.nagios.org/docs/
* http://docs.icinga.org/
* https://shinken.readthedocs.org/
* ...
* https://www.monitoring-plugins.org/

The openSUSE package contains most of the currently available plugins.

All plugins are installed in ''/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/'' on every architecture. 

== Special permissions for some plugins ==

The following checks require special handling as they need some root privileges to run:
* check_dhcp
* check_icmp
* check_ide_smart

In a default installation, those checks will not work if executed as user with limited
rights (such as user nagios or icinga). Please have a look into the corresponding 
documentation for those packages for more details.
