Configuration in PandoraFMS

The executor is one-shot: it runs the template once and exits. Scheduling is external.

Scenario How
As an agent plugin Template uses transfer.mode: agent_plugin; agent config: module_plugin /usr/bin/pandora-plugin_exec -t /etc/pandora/templates/df_used.yml
From cron / server side Template uses tentacle or local mode; crontab: */5 * * * * pandora-plugin_exec -t /etc/pandora/templates/myapp.yml
Running on the Pandora FMS server itself local mode pointed at the incoming data directory (/var/spool/pandora/data_in)
Debugging a template pandora-plugin_exec -t template.yml --dry-run -v

There is no wizard or .disco package for this plugin: installation means placing the binary (and templates) where the agent/cron can reach them, then wiring the module_plugin line or crontab entry shown above.
