SERVICES: verify if a service is still running on a remote Windows based host.
PROCESS: checks if a process is running or not
PROCESSMEM: checks the memory usage of a process
PROCESSCPU: checks the CPU usage of a process
EVENTLOG: creates an alert when an error is found in the event log
CPU: tracks the CPU usage and generates an alert when exceeding a treshold
MEMORY: monitors the available memory
DRIVESPACE: alerts you when the free space on a drive is too low
REGISTRY: checks if a specific registry entry can be found
Linux/Unix Based Checks
PROCESS: verify if a process is still running on a remote Linux/Unix host.

DELL OPEN MANAGE (SNMP): monitors values returned by a Dell Open Manage system through SNMP
MAXDATA: monitor hardware data from a MAXDATA server
File Checks
FILE: verifies if a file exists or not at the specified location
FILECONTENT: raises an alarm if a particular content can not be found in the file
FILE NEGATIVE CONTENT: raises an alarm if a particular content can be found in the file
FILE AGE: compares the age of a file to the current time in seconds and generates an alarm if the condition is true
FILE SIZE: verifies the size of a file and raises an alert if the conditions are not met.
Environmental Checks
TEMPERATURE: Monitors the temperature (°C or F) and alerts you when needed. Requires a temperature sensor.
HUMIDITY: Monitors the humidity in the air and alerts you when needed. Requires a humidity sensor.
FLOODING: Informs when an area becomes wet or flooded. Requires a flooding sensor.
POWERUP: Informs when a power outage occurs. Requires a power sensor.
Physical Security
SECURITY: Monitors physical security sensors (door contact, motion, smoke, glass break)
Custom Checks
