## Icinga 2 plugins for Windows
This collection of plugins is intended to provide basic functionality checks on windows machines.
They (mostly) conform to the [nagios developer guidelines](https://nagios-plugins.org/doc/guidelines.html),
returning adequate exit codes and printing a pertinent string with performance data.
### Intallation
The plugins are installed as part of Icinga 2.
### Requirements
- Boost 1.41.0
- Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008 or newer
### Usage
Call a plugin with the "--help" option to receive information about its usage.
Most of them don't need any parameters to but all of them have a -w (warning) and -c (critical) option.
Those accept, if not otherwise specified, value or percentage based thresholds or threshold ranges.
A few examples:
*./check_command.exe -w 12 -c !60%*
Adds a warning threshold of 12 and an inversed critical threshold of 60%
*./check_command.exe -w ![20%-80%] -c [0%-40%]*
The warning threshold is outside of 20% to 80% and the critical threshold is the range from 0% to 40%.
A critical state always overwrites a warning state, meaning the check would be critical with a value of 30%.
