Servicemon Blueprints: * servicemon-spring-cleaning * servicemon-tool Writing a Servicemon Checker About checkers A NAV service checker is a small Python class (inside a module with the same name) which checks a service and reports whether it is up or down. The checkers are found in nav.statemon.checkers (or subsystem/statemon/nav/statemon/checker/ in the source tree). For each checker, there's a Python module (DhcpChecker.py) and a corresponding description file (DhcpChecker.descr).
