Version 3.0.0-rc4 released
Lorenz Kästle, June 8, 2026
The Monitoring Plugins Development Team announces version 3.0.0-rc4 of the Monitoring Plugins.
This is the fourth release candidate for version 3.0.0. Against all hopes rc3 was not good enough :-)
The most notable change compared to 3.0.0-rc3 is the change in the "summary" (the first line in the plugin output) of all the plugins with the new output functionality. It now contains either a topic specific OK message or (in the case of a non-OK state) the message from the worst-first failed subcheck.
Changes
- Changes/Features
