Great stuff, thanks for the information.
I hope you guys can eventually cover the custom checks (local and genuine types).

Like you, I'm used to doing "su -", but I have noticed the possibility to do "omd su". What do you gain by doing "omd su"? There must surely be some advantage or the command wouldn't exist.

Hi, do I need to backup my checkmk configuration or does the configuration still exist on the new version? Cheers

Hello,

thank you for this useful tutorial!
What I was wondering is if I can run the Checkmk Free Version besides my Raw Edition to test the Premium features before I buy it?

Thank you in advance
