Shinken discovery daemon
shinken-discovery [-dr] [-c CONFIGFILE] [--debugfile DEBUGFILE]
Shinken discovery command.
There are two discovery modules included:
Standard network discovery which uses the nmap tool
VMware discovery which uses the check_esx3.pl script and a vcenter installation.
It is best to do the whole discovery in one pass because one module can use data from the other.
