Getting Started

1. Create a folder and move to the folder

   mkdir checkmk && cd checkmk
   
2. Create a docker-compose.yml file and add the following content:

   services:
     monitoring:
       image: checkmk/check-mk-raw:2.3.0-latest
       container_name: monitoring
       restart: always
       ports:
         - "8080:5000"
         - "8000:8000"
       tmpfs:
         - "/opt/omd/sites/cmk/tmp:uid=1000,gid=1000"
       volumes:
         - monitoring:/omd/sites
         - /etc/localtime:/etc/localtime:ro
       tty: true
       stdin_open: true
   
   volumes:
     monitoring:
   
3. Run the following command to start the container:

   docker compose up -d
   
4. Get the initial password for your cmkadmin account by checking the container logs:

   docker container logs monitoring
   
   
   
5. Access Checkmk by opening http://localhost:8080 in your browser and logging in with:

   Username: cmkadmin
