Examples

Default Check

check_temperature
OK - Package id 0: 65.0 °C, Core 0: 62.0 °C, Core 1: 61.0 °C, Core 2: 65.0 °C |...

Show all temperature sensors and apply custom thresholds:

check_temperature filter=none warn="temperature > 85" crit="temperature > 90"
OK - Package id 0: 65.0 °C, Core 0: 62.0 °C, Core 1: 61.0 °C, Core 2: 65.0 °C |...

Example using check_snclient and Naemon

Naemon Config

define command{
    command_name         check_snclient
    command_line         $USER1$/check_snclient -k -p 'your-password' -u 'https://$HOSTADDRESS$:8443' $ARG1$ $ARG2$
}

define service {
    host_name            testhost
    service_description  check_temperature
    use                  generic-service
    check_command        check_snclient!check_temperature!
