Wherever they fit for your understanding. Just make sure they are
included (I'd put them into conf.d/commands.conf being a lazy ass).
I'm struggling with understanding how commands are defined, sorry.
That's why there's documentation.
http://docs.icinga.org/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/toc#!/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/chapter/monitoring-basics#commands
I look at the default localhost.conf and the localhost directory full of
various check services *.conf and I am having trouble understanding how the
various commands are defined.
If I look at 'disk' for example:
object Service "disk" {
import "generic-service"
host_name = "localhost"
check_command = "disk"
vars.sla = "24x7"
}
The check_command = "disk".... where is the actual command for "disk" defined?
By default in the Plugin Command Templates described in
http://docs.icinga.org/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/toc#!/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/chapter/configuring-icinga2#plugin-check-command-disk
It looks like the only place it is defined is in
/usr/share/icinga2/include/command-plugins.conf which is why I thought I needed
to define commands in that file.
Probably you should read this chapter as well.
http://docs.icinga.org/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/toc#!/icinga2/latest/doc/module/icinga2/chapter/configuring-icinga2#plugin-check-commands
So if I create a conf file to use check_wmi_plus and define the check command
like the mentioned below
object CheckCommand "wmi_plus" {
import ...
How does it know where/what "wmi_plus" is? Or does it just look at
/usr/lib/nagios/plugins for "wmi_plus" and then I define vars.whatever for all the
arguments?
Better explained here

I’d like to use check_wmi_plus with Icinga2. I have check_wmi_plus

I do have a couple of questions though.
Do I need to define the commands in
/usr/share/icinga2/include/command-plugins.conf?
No that file will be overridden on upgrade. Rather define it locally and submit
a patch to upstream once capable for everyone.
How do I define a username and password for the plugin to use? In
Nagios, I would add the username and password to the resources.conf
file and then reference them in the command as $ARG$ or something to
that effect. What is the equivalent of this in Icinga2?
One might define a global constant and use that in the check command
definition. Something like
const GlobalWmiPlusPassword = "foo"
...
object CheckCommand "wmi_plus" {
import ...
---
vars.wmi_plus_username = GlobalWmiPlusPassword }
