check_graylog_sidecars

Project Notes

This plugin will use the graylog api (/api/sidecars/all) to check the status and activity of the graylog sidecars.

You can choose to give a warning when there are:
- inactive sidecars using the --inactive flag.
- sidecars with a non 0 status using the --status flag.

If you don't provide any of these option, the plugin will always report OK.

When commumication with the API is not possible, the plugin will report UNKNOWN.
