💖 mc-nrpe 💖

okay so bestie, this is the mc-nrpe manual page — that's the name, that's the vibe, that's the whole thing. it lives in section 1 of the manual, and it's about running NRPE commands but using MCollective as the transport instead of... whatever else you were gonna use. periodt.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

mc-nrpe [-options]

like, that's it. that's the whole summoning ritual. 💅

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

mc-nrpe runs NRPE commands using MCollective as the transport. no cap, that's the entire job description.

Usage:

mc-nrpe [options]

and here's the option list, bestie, all of it, not skipping a single one:

  • --np, --no-progress — do not show the progress bar. if you're the kind of girl who doesn't need the little bar hyping her up, this one's for you 🙈
  • -1, --one — send the request to only one of the discovered nodes. just one. a lil solo mission. one single node main character energy 👑
  • --limit-nodes, --ln [COUNT] — send the request to only a subset of nodes. and yes bestie, that <COUNT> can be a percentage. iconic.

💫 Common Options 💫

the shared ones, the universal faves, the ones everybody uses:

  • -T, --target COLLECTIVE — target your messages at one specific sub collective 🎯
  • -c, --config FILE — load configuratuion from a file rather than the default. (that spelling is literally what it says, i'm not touching it, it's canon 🫶)
  • --dt, --discovery-timeout SECONDS — the timeout for doing discovery ⏳
  • -t, --timeout SECONDS — the timeout for calling remote agents ⏰
  • -q, --quiet — do not be verbose 🤫
  • -v, --verbose — be verbose 🗣️
  • -h, --help — display this screen. hi, hello, welcome 💖

🦋 Host Filters 🦋

this is the "who exactly are we talking to" section. the vibe check for your fleet:

  • -W, --with FILTER — the combined classes and facts filter. two filters, one flag, we love efficiency 🌈
  • -F, --wf, --with-fact fact=val — match hosts that have a certain fact ⭐
  • -C, --wc, --with-class CLASS — match hosts with a certain config management class 🎀
  • -A, --wa, --with-agent AGENT — match hosts with a certain agent 🧚
  • -I, --wi, --with-identity IDENT — match hosts with a certain configured identity 💜
