Thank you for your interest in contributing to Checkmk! Consider looking into Readme regarding process details.
Please give a brief summary of the affected device, software or appliance. Keep in mind that we are experts in monitoring, but we cannot be experts on all supported devices. A little context will help us assess your proposed change.
Please include:
- Your operating system name and version
- Any details about your local setup that might be helpful in troubleshooting
- Detailed steps to reproduce the bug
- An agent output or SNMP walk
- The ID of a submitted crash report for reference (if applicable)
Sometimes it is hard for us to assess the quality of a fix. While it may work for you, it is our job to ensure that it works for everybody. These are some ways to help us:
- What is the expected behavior?
- What is the observed behavior?
- If it's not obvious from the above: In what way does your patch change the current behavior?
- Consider writing a unit test that would have failed without your fix.
- Is this a new problem? What made you submit this PR (new firmware, new device, changed device behavior)?
