View source for Monitor fail2ban with check mk 1.6

For monitoring the status of fail2ban with check_mk there is an external plugin, which can be found [https://notes.benv.junerules.com/fail2ban/ here]. Follow the instructions on the site to install the plugin. This works fine on versions of check_mk up to 1.5.x.
<p>
However, in check_mk 1.6 a change is made to the inventory function of the check_mk plugin. In order to fix this, edit <tt>/omd/sites/Home/local/share/check_mk/checks/fail2ban,</tt> and make the following change:</br>
<code>
def inventory_fail2ban(checkname, info):</br>
to:</br>
def inventory_fail2ban(info):
</code><p>

That should fix the issue and fail2ban monitoring is working again.
