Ok,From what I understood, there already are some nagios plugins for checking smart (found some on the exchange). That's not the point however, i can write some myself even if there weren't. The idea is -and here is my problem - I never configured icinga2 to monitor remote system components and the documentation details master/satellite/clients bottom-up top-down configurations, i find it complex and complicated and this is why i wanted to know someone's opinion, preferably someone who made this work already.
Here's my logic: (please correct me if i'm wrong)- I have a master and i want to setup clients/satellites/slaves(everybody has their own terminology nowadays) so that -- each server has icinga2 client running on it and doing local smart checks.
-- each server reports to master that it's disks are ok or not.I am sorry if my question wasn't clear enough, yes, that is what i meant precisely. Remote querying of plugins.

I have icinga2 running already but i'm not monitoring remote hardware, only remote availability via icmp or tcp port (like http, pop, etc). I was thinking maybe somebody does this on a large enough scale and can recommend a theoretical setup based on personal experience with setup, maintenance, ease of configuration, scalability, automation etc. I didn't ask about man pages or command line parameters to plugins, no thank you, I can read those myself.Hey, calm down a little. I would have suggested plugins as well, as your initial question was not that clear. So you already have a plugin you prefer, and you want to know about querying it remotely, right?

On icinga2, what scenario do you recommend ?
