@lippserd Do we even still maintain the shipped (old) Windows plugins?

We should encourage users to use Icinga for Windows.
@LordHepipud Is it possible to check multiple services with one check?
Hello everyone,
yes this is possible with the service check command:
Invoke-IcingaCheckService -Service 'wscsvc', 'XblAuthManager', 'XblGameSave';
[CRITICAL] Check package "Services" - [CRITICAL] Service "Xbox Live-Spiele speichern (XblGameSave)"
\_ [CRITICAL] Service "Xbox Live-Spiele speichern (XblGameSave)": Value "Stopped" is not matching threshold "Running"
| 'service_sicherheitscenter_wscsvc'=4;;4 'pending_paused_services'=0;; 'running_services'=2;; 'pending_continued_services'=0;; 'stopped_services'=1;; 'pending_started_services'=0;; 'service_count'=3;; 'pending_stopped_services'=0;; 'paused_services'=0;; 'service_xbox_livespiele_speichern_xblgamesave'=1;;4 'service_xbox_live_authentifizierungsmanager_xblauthmanager'=4;;4
A description is vailable on Icinga Docs for the Service Check
Just one addition, you can also do some wildcard include / exclude:
Invoke-IcingaCheckService -Service '*csv*';
[CRITICAL] Check package "Services" - [CRITICAL] Service "Volumetric Audio Compositor-Dienst (VacSvc)", Service "Windows Update Medic Service (WaaSMedicSvc)", Service "Windows-Ereignissammlung (Wecsvc)"
\_ [CRITICAL] Service "Volumetric Audio Compositor-Dienst (VacSvc)": Value "Stopped" is not matching threshold "Running"
\_ [CRITICAL] Service "Windows Update Medic Service (WaaSMedicSvc)": Value "Stopped" is not matching threshold "Running"
\_ [CRITICAL] Service "Windows-Ereignissammlung (Wecsvc)": Value "Stopped" is not matching threshold "Running"
| 'pending_paused_services'=0;; 'running_services'=4;; 'pending_continued_services'=0;; 'stopped_services'=3;; 'pending_started_services'=0;; 'service_count'=7;; 'pending_stopped_services'=0;; 'paused_services'=0;; 'service_sicherheitscenter_wscsvc'=4;;4 'service_synchronisierungshost_1dd0d4_onesyncsvc_1dd0d4'=4;;4 'service_volumetric_audio_compositordienst_vacsvc'=1;;4 'service_windowsereignissammlung_wecsvc'=1;;4 'service_windowssofortverbindung_konfigurationsregistrierungsstelle_wcncsvc'=4;;4 'service_windows_update_medic_service_waasmedicsvc'=1;;4 'service_microsoft_passport_ngcsvc'=4;;4
@LordHepipud Thanks for the info. I added a docs PR for the wildcard support. @phibos Please use Icinga for Windows.
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
At the moment I use check_service.exe to monitor the state of some windows services and I want to increase the number of services. There are about 10 services I want to check on a basic windows server and for example about 30 additional services on an Exchange Server.
I'm looking forward to check the services on about 400 Windows Servers which would result in 4000+ checks just for the windows services.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice if I could provide more than one service to check. This would reduce the overall number of service checks in the Icinga Cluster.
The service should become critical if one of the services is not running.
It would also be nice to specify some sort of RegEx to include or exclude the services.
Include
With additional exclude
Describe alternatives you've considered
The main alternative would be to write/find an extra check program/script to fit the requirements.
Additional context
For me it is OK if you want to keep the shipped check commands as simple as possible.
