Check_MK Werk 6496: check_mk_agent.linux: Moved piggybacked docker container sections to plugin 'mk_docker_container_piggybacked'

ID: 6496 Title: check_mk_agent.linux: Moved piggybacked docker container sections to plugin 'mk_docker_container_piggybacked' Component: Checks & agents Level: 1 Class: Bug fix Version: 1.6.0i1 In order to monitor docker containers the {{check_mk_agent}} collects the following information of each docker container as piggyback data: <ul> <li>The state, node name, labels and network information</li> <li>Execution of the {{check_mk_agent}} within running containers</li> </ul> Moreover you have to create piggybacked hosts in Check_MK for each docker container. The piggybacked host name is the docker container ID. Due to a long running time of these sections they are transferred to the plugin {{mk_docker_container_piggybacked}} which also can be executed asynchronously. That means that these sections were removed from the {{check_mk_agent}} and you have to install the plugin to the plugins folder on the client.
