Usage

Command-line usage:

usage: check_paloalto [-h] -H HOST -T TOKEN [-v] [-t TIMEOUT] [--reset]
                  [--version]
                  {diskspace,certificates,load,useragent,environmental,sessinfo,thermal,throughput}
                  ...

positional arguments:
  {diskspace,certificates,load,useragent,environmental,sessinfo,thermal,throughput}
    diskspace           check used diskspace.
    certificates        check the certificate store for expiring certificates:
                        Outputs is a warning, if a certificate is in range.
    load                check the CPU load.
    useragent           check for running useragents.
    environmental       check if an alarm is found.
    sessinfo            check important session parameters.
    thermal             check the temperature.
    throughput          check the throughput.

optional arguments:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

Connection:
  -H HOST, --host HOST  PaloAlto Server Hostname
  -T TOKEN, --token TOKEN
                        Generated Token for REST-API access

Debug:
  -v, --verbose         increase output verbosity (use up to 3 times)
  -t TIMEOUT, --timeout TIMEOUT
                        abort check execution after so many seconds (use 0 for
                        no timeout)
  --reset               Deletes the cookie file for the throughput check.

Info:
  --version             show program's version number and exit
