+check_multi is kind of a wrapper plugin which takes benefit of the
+Nagios 3.x capability to display multiple lines of plugin output.
+It calls multiple child plugins and displays their output in the
+long_plugin_output. A summary is given in the standard plugin output.
+The child return code with the highest severity becomes the parent
+(check_multi) plugin return code.
+
+The configuration is very simple: a NRPE-stylish config file contains
+a tag for each child plugin and then the check command line.
+
+check_multi can cover complex Business Process Views - using a builtin
+state evaluation mechanism. The second benefit is cluster monitoring
+with no need for extra services. All you need is provided by check_multi.
