Agent uses a IMAP check if the service listen on port 143.

If some auto-detected parameters are wrong, you can manually override them by adding the following to /etc/glouton/conf.d/99-local.conf:

service:
  [...]

  # For a Dovecot running outside a container
  - type: "dovecot"
    address: "127.0.0.1"
    port: 143   # IMAP listener, Agent don't support IMAPS here

  # For an additional Dovecot running outside a container
  - type: "dovecot"
    instance: "NAME_ASSOCIATED_WITH_YOUR_ADDITIONAL_SERVICE"
    address: "127.0.0.1"
    port: 144   # IMAP listener, Agent don't support IMAPS here

  # For a Dovecot running in a Docker container
  - type: "dovecot"
    instance: "CONTAINER_NAME"
    address: "172.17.0.2"
    port: 143   # IMAP listener, Agent don't support IMAPS here

Only the metric from service check is produced:
