💅 barman-check — the vibe check your Barman servers deserve

okay bestie, so barman-check is literally the sub-command you run when you wanna know everything about how your servers are doing. it's from the Barman manual, section 1, and no cap it's the main character of diagnostic tooling. 💖

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

check
    [ { -h | --help } ]
    [ --nagios ]
    SERVER_NAME [ SERVER_NAME ... ]

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

okay so here's the tea: barman-check spills all the status info about a server — like the SSH connection, the Postgres version, your configuration and backup directories, the archiving and streaming processes, replication slots, and honestly so much more. 🦋

and the way that you can just drop all in there as a shortcut and it shows you diagnostic information for every single configured server?? obsessed. 🔥

🎀 PARAMETERS 🎀

  • SERVER_NAME — the name of the server in barman node, bestie. that's it, that's the girl. 💅
  • -h / --help — shows a help message and then exits, like a polite queen. gives you the info about how to use the command. 🫶
  • --nagios — nagios plugin compatible output. if you're plugging this into nagios, this is the flag for you. ⭐

🌈 SHORTCUTS 🌈

instead of typing a SERVER_NAME, you can use a shortcut, and honestly? iconic.

  • all — all available servers. every last one. 💖
