Hello Trond,

First of all, I want to thank you for the excellent plugin and continued su=
pport and development.

The purpose of this is to suggest including a whitelist option to do the op=
posite of the blacklist option.
This will allow anyone to create checks with higher granularity.

For example, something like
# check_openmanage -s -H myhost --only storage --whitelist vdisk=3D0:1
would allow me to check status of an individual vdisk.

Thanks,
---
David Prado
