General information

We like to use filestats plugin to monitor Folders on a backupsystem if they contain current versions of the backup. We i.E. have something like:
/backup/vms/VM-NAME.fqdn/export1.gz
/backup/vms/VM-NAME.fqdn/export2.gz
/backup/vms/ANOTHER-VM-NAME.fqdn/export1.gz
/backup/vms/ANOTHER-VM-NAME.fqdn/export2.gz
As folders like VM-NAME.fqdn are created dynamically on the system we would like to dynamically extend the list of subgroups.

Really cool :) just tested this successfully with a Checkmk 2.3. Works like a charm, thanks @vafgoettlich

Hi @vafgoettlich!

Thanks for the contribution! This is a great addition, though it will require a bit more discovery and development time to integrate fully. We’ve scheduled this to be picked up as part of our planned maintenance work. Since this involves a longer implementation window, it may be a while before we can finalize the merge, but we will keep you posted on the progress.
