# Installation <a id="installation"></a>
|
||
|
||
This tutorial is a step-by-step introduction to installing [Icinga 2](02-installation.md#setting-up-icinga2)
|
||
and [Icinga Web 2](02-installation.md#setting-up-icingaweb2).
|
||
It assumes that you are familiar with the operating system you're using to install Icinga 2.
|
||
|
||
In case you are upgrading an existing setup, please ensure to
|
||
follow the [upgrade documentation](16-upgrading-icinga-2.md#upgrading-icinga-2).
|
||
|
||
## Setting up Icinga 2 <a id="setting-up-icinga2"></a>
|
||
|
||
First off you have to install Icinga 2. The preferred way of doing this
|
||
is to use the official package repositories depending on which operating system
|
||
and distribution you are running.

> **Note**:
|
||
>
|
||
> This repository is required for Debian Stretch since v2.11.
|
||
|
||
Debian Stretch:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
DIST=$(awk -F"[)(]+" '/VERSION=/ {print $2}' /etc/os-release); \
|

|
||
|
||
#### RHEL/CentOS/Fedora Repositories <a id="package-repositories-rhel-centos-fedora"></a>
|
||
|
||
RHEL/CentOS 7:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
yum install https://packages.icinga.com/epel/icinga-rpm-release-7-latest.noarch.rpm
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
RHEL/CentOS 6 x64:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
yum install https://packages.icinga.com/epel/icinga-rpm-release-6-latest.noarch.rpm
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Fedora 29:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
dnf install https://packages.icinga.com/fedora/icinga-rpm-release-29-latest.noarch.rpm
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
##### RHEL/CentOS EPEL Repository <a id="package-repositories-rhel-epel"></a>
|
||
|
||
The packages for RHEL/CentOS depend on other packages which are distributed
|
||
as part of the [EPEL repository](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL).
|
||
|
||
CentOS 7/6:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
yum install epel-release
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If you are using RHEL you need to enable the `optional` repository and then install
|
||
the [EPEL rpm package](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL#How_can_I_use_these_extra_packages.3F).
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-7-server-optional-rpms
|
||
# or
|
||
subscription-manager repos --enable rhel-6-server-optional-rpms
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### SLES/OpenSUSE Repositories <a id="package-repositories-sles-opensuse"></a>
|
||
|
||
The release repository also provides the required Boost 1.66+ packages
|
||
since v2.11.
|
||
|
||
SLES 15/12:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
rpm --import https://packages.icinga.com/icinga.key
|
||
|
||
zypper ar https://packages.icinga.com/SUSE/ICINGA-release.repo
|
||
zypper ref
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
openSUSE:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
rpm --import https://packages.icinga.com/icinga.key
|
||
|
||
zypper ar https://packages.icinga.com/openSUSE/ICINGA-release.repo
|
||
zypper ref
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Alpine Linux Repositories <a id="package-repositories-alpine"></a>
|
||
|
||
Alpine Linux:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
echo "http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/main" >> /etc/apk/repositories
|
||
echo "http://dl-cdn.alpinelinux.org/alpine/edge/community" >> /etc/apk/repositories
|
||
apk update
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The example provided assumes that you are running Alpine edge, which is the -dev branch and is a rolling release.
|
||
If you are using a stable version please "pin" the edge repository on the latest Icinga 2 package version.
|
||
In order to correctly manage your repository, please follow
|
||
[these instructions](https://wiki.alpinelinux.org/wiki/Alpine_Linux_package_management)
|
||
|
||
### Installing Icinga 2 <a id="installing-icinga2"></a>
|
||
|
||
You can install Icinga 2 by using your distribution's package manager
|
||
to install the `icinga2` package. The following commands must be executed
|
||
with `root` permissions unless noted otherwise.
|
||
|
||
Debian/Ubuntu:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
apt-get install icinga2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
RHEL/CentOS 7 and Fedora:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
yum install icinga2
|
||
systemctl enable icinga2
|
||
systemctl start icinga2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
RHEL/CentOS 6:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
yum install icinga2
|
||
chkconfig icinga2 on
|
||
service icinga2 start
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
SLES/openSUSE:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
zypper install icinga2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
FreeBSD:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
pkg install icinga2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Alpine Linux:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
apk add icinga2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Enabled Features during Installation <a id="installation-enabled-features"></a>
|
||
|
||
The default installation will enable three features required for a basic
|
||
Icinga 2 installation:
|
||
|
||
* `checker` for executing checks
|
||
* `notification` for sending notifications
|
||
* `mainlog` for writing the `icinga2.log` file
|
||
|
||
You can verify that by calling `icinga2 feature list`
|
||
[CLI command](11-cli-commands.md#cli-command-feature) to see which features are
|
||
enabled and disabled.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# icinga2 feature list
|
||
Disabled features: api command compatlog debuglog gelf graphite icingastatus ido-mysql ido-pgsql influxdb livestatus opentsdb perfdata statusdata syslog
|
||
Enabled features: checker mainlog notification
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Installation Paths <a id="installation-paths"></a>
|
||
|
||
By default Icinga 2 uses the following files and directories:
|
||
|
||
Path | Description
|
||
----------------------------------------------|------------------------------------
|
||
/etc/icinga2 | Contains Icinga 2 configuration files.
|
||
/usr/lib/systemd/system/icinga2.service | The Icinga 2 systemd service file on systems using systemd.
|
||
/etc/systemd/system/icinga2.service.d/limits.conf | On distributions with systemd >227, additional service limits are required.
|
||
/etc/init.d/icinga2 | The Icinga 2 init script on systems using SysVinit or OpenRC.
|
||
/usr/sbin/icinga2 | Shell wrapper for the Icinga 2 binary.
|
||
/usr/lib\*/icinga2 | Libraries and the Icinga 2 binary (use `find /usr -type f -name icinga2` to locate the binary path).
|
||
/usr/share/doc/icinga2 | Documentation files that come with Icinga 2.
|
||
/usr/share/icinga2/include | The Icinga Template Library and plugin command configuration.
|
||
/var/lib/icinga2 | Icinga 2 state file, cluster log, master CA, node certificates and configuration files (cluster, api).
|
||
/var/run/icinga2 | PID file.
|
||
/var/run/icinga2/cmd | Command pipe and Livestatus socket.
|
||
/var/cache/icinga2 | status.dat/objects.cache, icinga2.debug files.
|
||
/var/spool/icinga2 | Used for performance data spool files.
|
||
/var/log/icinga2 | Log file location and compat/ directory for the CompatLogger feature.
|
||
|
||
FreeBSD uses slightly different paths:
|
||
|
||
By default Icinga 2 uses the following files and directories:
|
||
|
||
Path | Description
|
||
------------------------------------|------------------------------------
|
||
/usr/local/etc/icinga2 | Contains Icinga 2 configuration files.
|
||
/usr/local/etc/rc.d/icinga2 | The Icinga 2 init script.
|
||
/usr/local/sbin/icinga2 | Shell wrapper for the Icinga 2 binary.
|
||
/usr/local/lib/icinga2 | Libraries and the Icinga 2 binary.
|
||
/usr/local/share/doc/icinga2 | Documentation files that come with Icinga 2.
|
||
/usr/local/share/icinga2/include | The Icinga Template Library and plugin command configuration.
|
||
/var/lib/icinga2 | Icinga 2 state file, cluster log, master CA, node certificates and configuration files (cluster, api).
|
||
/var/run/icinga2 | PID file.
|
||

|
||
|
||
## Setting up Check Plugins <a id="setting-up-check-plugins"></a>
|
||
|
||
Without plugins Icinga 2 does not know how to check external services. The
|
||
[Monitoring Plugins Project](https://www.monitoring-plugins.org/) provides
|
||
an extensive set of plugins which can be used with Icinga 2 to check whether
|
||
services are working properly.
|
||
|
||
These plugins are required to make the [example configuration](04-configuration.md#configuring-icinga2-overview)
|
||
work out-of-the-box.
|
||
|
||
For your convenience here is a list of package names for some of the more
|
||
popular operating systems/distributions:
|
||
|
||
OS/Distribution | Package Name | Repository | Installation Path
|
||
-----------------------|--------------------|---------------------------|----------------------------
|
||
RHEL/CentOS | nagios-plugins-all | [EPEL](https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL) | /usr/lib/nagios/plugins or /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins
|
||
SLES/OpenSUSE | monitoring-plugins | [server:monitoring](https://build.opensuse.org/project/repositories/server:monitoring) | /usr/lib/nagios/plugins
|
||
Debian/Ubuntu | monitoring-plugins | - | /usr/lib/nagios/plugins
|
||
FreeBSD | monitoring-plugins | - | /usr/local/libexec/nagios
|
||
Alpine Linux | monitoring-plugins | - | /usr/lib/monitoring-plugins
|
||
macOS | monitoring-plugins | [MacPorts](https://www.macports.org), [Homebrew](https://brew.sh) | /opt/local/libexec or /usr/local/sbin
|
||
|
||
The recommended way of installing these standard plugins is to use your
|
||
distribution's package manager.
|
||
|
||
Debian/Ubuntu:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
apt-get install monitoring-plugins
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
RHEL/CentOS:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
yum install nagios-plugins-all
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The packages for RHEL/CentOS depend on other packages which are distributed
|
||
as part of the [EPEL repository](02-installation.md#package-repositories-rhel-epel).
|
||
|
||
Fedora:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
dnf install nagios-plugins-all
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
SLES/openSUSE:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
zypper install monitoring-plugins
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The packages for SLES/OpenSUSE depend on other packages which are distributed
|
||
as part of the [server:monitoring repository](https://build.opensuse.org/project/repositories/server:monitoring).
|
||
Please make sure to enable this repository beforehand.
|
||
|
||
FreeBSD:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
pkg install monitoring-plugins
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Alpine Linux:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
apk add monitoring-plugins
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Note: For Alpine you don't need to explicitly add the `monitoring-plugins` package since it is a dependency of
|
||
`icinga2` and is pulled automatically.
|
||
|
||
Depending on which directory your plugins are installed into you may need to
|
||
update the global `PluginDir` constant in your [Icinga 2 configuration](04-configuration.md#constants-conf).
|
||
This constant is used by the check command definitions contained in the Icinga Template Library
|
||
to determine where to find the plugin binaries.
|
||
|
||
> **Note**
|
||
>
|
||
> Please refer to the [service monitoring](05-service-monitoring.md#service-monitoring-plugins) chapter for details about how to integrate
|
||
> additional check plugins into your Icinga 2 setup.
|
||
|
||
## Running Icinga 2 <a id="running-icinga2"></a>
|
||
|
||
### Systemd Service <a id="systemd-service"></a>
|
||
|
||
Some distributions (e.g. Fedora, openSUSE and RHEL/CentOS 7) use systemd. The
|
||
Icinga 2 packages automatically install the necessary systemd unit files.
|
||
|
||
The Icinga 2 systemd service can be (re-)started, reloaded, stopped and also
|
||
queried for its current status.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# systemctl status icinga2
|
||

|
||
The `systemctl` command supports the following actions:
|
||
|
||
Command | Description
|
||
--------------------|------------------------
|
||
start | The `start` action starts the Icinga 2 daemon.
|
||
stop | The `stop` action stops the Icinga 2 daemon.
|
||
restart | The `restart` action is a shortcut for running the `stop` action followed by `start`.
|
||
reload | The `reload` action sends the `HUP` signal to Icinga 2 which causes it to restart. Unlike the `restart` action `reload` does not wait until Icinga 2 has restarted.
|
||
status | The `status` action checks if Icinga 2 is running.
|
||
enable | The `enable` action enables the service being started at system boot time (similar to `chkconfig`)
|
||
|
||
Examples:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# systemctl enable icinga2
|
||
|
||
# systemctl restart icinga2
|
||
Job for icinga2.service failed. See 'systemctl status icinga2.service' and 'journalctl -xn' for details.
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
If you're stuck with configuration errors, you can manually invoke the
|
||
[configuration validation](11-cli-commands.md#config-validation).
|
||
|
||
> **Tip**
|
||
>
|
||
> If you are running into fork errors with systemd enabled distributions,
|
||
> please check the [troubleshooting chapter](15-troubleshooting.md#check-fork-errors).
|
||
|
||
### Init Script <a id="init-script"></a>
|
||
|
||
Icinga 2's init script is installed in `/etc/init.d/icinga2` (`/usr/local/etc/rc.d/icinga2` on FreeBSD) by default:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# /etc/init.d/icinga2
|
||
Usage: /etc/init.d/icinga2 {start|stop|restart|reload|checkconfig|status}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
The init script supports the following actions:
|
||
|
||
Command | Description
|
||
--------------------|------------------------
|
||
start | The `start` action starts the Icinga 2 daemon.
|
||
stop | The `stop` action stops the Icinga 2 daemon.
|
||
restart | The `restart` action is a shortcut for running the `stop` action followed by `start`.
|
||
reload | The `reload` action sends the `HUP` signal to Icinga 2 which causes it to restart. Unlike the `restart` action `reload` does not wait until Icinga 2 has restarted.
|
||
checkconfig | The `checkconfig` action checks if the `/etc/icinga2/icinga2.conf` configuration file contains any errors.
|
||
status | The `status` action checks if Icinga 2 is running.
|
||
|
||
By default, the Icinga 2 daemon is running as `icinga` user and group
|
||
using the init script. Using Debian packages the user and group are set to
|
||
`nagios` for historical reasons.
|
||
|
||
|
||
### FreeBSD <a id="running-icinga2-freebsd"></a>
|
||
|
||
On FreeBSD you need to enable icinga2 in your rc.conf
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# sysrc icinga2_enable=yes
|
||
|
||
# service icinga2 restart
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### SELinux <a id="running-icinga2-selinux"></a>
|
||
|
||
SELinux is a mandatory access control (MAC) system on Linux which adds
|
||
a fine-grained permission system for access to all system resources such
|
||
as files, devices, networks and inter-process communication.
|
||
|
||
Icinga 2 provides its own SELinux policy. `icinga2-selinux` is a policy package
|
||
for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and derivatives. The package runs the targeted policy
|
||
which confines Icinga 2 including enabled features and running commands.
|
||
|
||
RHEL/CentOS 7:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
yum install icinga2-selinux
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Fedora:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
dnf install icinga2-selinux
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Read more about SELinux in [this chapter](22-selinux.md#selinux).
|
||
|
||
## Configuration Syntax Highlighting <a id="configuration-syntax-highlighting"></a>
|
||
|
||
Icinga 2 provides configuration examples for syntax highlighting using the `vim` and `nano` editors.
|
||
The RHEL and SUSE package `icinga2-common` installs these files into `/usr/share/doc/icinga2-common-[x.x.x]/syntax`
|
||
(where `[x.x.x]` is the version number, e.g. `2.4.3` or `2.4.4`). Sources provide these files in `tools/syntax`.
|
||
On Debian systems the `icinga2-common` package provides only the Nano configuration file (`/usr/share/nano/icinga2.nanorc`);
|
||
to obtain the Vim configuration, please install the extra package `vim-icinga2`. The files are located in `/usr/share/vim/addons`.
|
||
|
||
### Configuration Syntax Highlighting using Vim <a id="configuration-syntax-highlighting-vim"></a>
|
||
|
||
Install the package `vim-icinga2` with your distribution's package manager.
|
||
|
||
Debian/Ubuntu:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
apt-get install vim-icinga2 vim-addon-manager
|
||
vim-addon-manager -w install icinga2
|
||
Info: installing removed addon 'icinga2' to /var/lib/vim/addons
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
RHEL/CentOS/Fedora:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
yum install vim-icinga2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
SLES/openSUSE:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
zypper install vim-icinga2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Alpine Linux:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
apk add icinga2-vim
|
||
```
|
||
Ensure that syntax highlighting is enabled e.g. by editing the user's `vimrc`
|
||
configuration file:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# vim ~/.vimrc
|
||
syntax on
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Test it:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# vim /etc/icinga2/conf.d/templates.conf
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Configuration Syntax Highlighting using Nano <a id="configuration-syntax-highlighting-nano"></a>
|
||
|
||
Install the package `nano-icinga2` with your distribution's package manager.
|
||
|
||
Debian/Ubuntu:
|
||
|
||
**Note:** The syntax files are installed with the `icinga2-common` package already.
|
||
|
||
RHEL/CentOS/Fedora:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
yum install nano-icinga2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
SLES/openSUSE:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
zypper install nano-icinga2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Copy the `/etc/nanorc` sample file to your home directory.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ cp /etc/nanorc ~/.nanorc
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Include the `icinga2.nanorc` file.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ vim ~/.nanorc
|
||
|
||
## Icinga 2
|
||
include "/usr/share/nano/icinga2.nanorc"
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Test it:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
$ nano /etc/icinga2/conf.d/templates.conf

|
||
>
|
||
> The Debian/Ubuntu packages provide a database configuration wizard by
|
||
> default. You can skip the automated setup and install/upgrade the
|
||
> database manually if you prefer.
|
||
|
||
#### Setting up the MySQL database <a id="setting-up-mysql-db"></a>
|
||
|
||
Set up a MySQL database for Icinga 2:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# mysql -u root -p
|
||
|
||
CREATE DATABASE icinga;
|
||
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, DROP, CREATE VIEW, INDEX, EXECUTE ON icinga.* TO 'icinga'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'icinga';
|
||
quit
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
After creating the database you can import the Icinga 2 IDO schema using the
|
||
following command. Enter the root password into the prompt when asked.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
mysql -u root -p icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-mysql/schema/mysql.sql
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### Enabling the IDO MySQL module <a id="enabling-ido-mysql"></a>
|
||
|
||
The package provides a new configuration file that is installed in
|
||
`/etc/icinga2/features-available/ido-mysql.conf`. You can update
|
||
the database credentials in this file.
|
||
|
||
All available attributes are explained in the
|
||
[IdoMysqlConnection object](09-object-types.md#objecttype-idomysqlconnection)
|
||
chapter.
|

|
||
|
||
#### Setting up the PostgreSQL database
|
||
|
||
Set up a PostgreSQL database for Icinga 2:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
cd /tmp
|
||
sudo -u postgres psql -c "CREATE ROLE icinga WITH LOGIN PASSWORD 'icinga'"
|
||
sudo -u postgres createdb -O icinga -E UTF8 icinga
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
> **Note**
|
||
>
|
||
> It is assumed here that your locale is set to utf-8, you may run into problems otherwise.
|
||
|
||
Locate your `pg_hba.conf` configuration file (Debian: `/etc/postgresql/*/main/pg_hba.conf`,
|
||
RHEL/SUSE: `/var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf`), add the icinga user with `md5`
|
||
as authentication method and restart the postgresql server.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# icinga
|
||
local icinga icinga md5
|
||
host icinga icinga 127.0.0.1/32 md5
|
||
host icinga icinga ::1/128 md5
|
||
|

local all all ident
|
||
# IPv4 local connections:
|
||
host all all 127.0.0.1/32 ident
|
||
# IPv6 local connections:
|
||
host all all ::1/128 ident
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
systemctl restart postgresql
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
|
||
After creating the database and permissions you need to import the IDO database
|
||
schema using the following command:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
export PGPASSWORD=icinga
|
||
psql -U icinga -d icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-pgsql/schema/pgsql.sql
|
||
```
|

|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
#### Enabling the IDO PostgreSQL module <a id="enabling-ido-postgresql"></a>
|
||
|
||
The package provides a new configuration file that is installed in
|
||
`/etc/icinga2/features-available/ido-pgsql.conf`. You can update
|
||
the database credentials in this file.
|
||
|

|
||
`icinga2 feature enable`:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
# icinga2 feature enable ido-pgsql
|
||
Module 'ido-pgsql' was enabled.
|
||
Make sure to restart Icinga 2 for these changes to take effect.
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Restart Icinga 2.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||

|
||
rc-service icinga2 restart
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Continue with the [webserver setup](02-installation.md#icinga2-user-interface-webserver).
|
||
|
||
### Webserver <a id="icinga2-user-interface-webserver"></a>
|
||
|
||
The preferred way of installing Icinga Web 2 is to use Apache as webserver
|
||
in combination with PHP-FPM. If you prefer Nginx, please refer to the Icinga Web 2
|
||
documentation.
|
||
|
||
Debian/Ubuntu:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
apt-get install apache2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
RHEL/CentOS 7, Fedora:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
yum install httpd
|
||
systemctl enable httpd
|
||
systemctl start httpd
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
SUSE:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
zypper install apache2
|
||
chkconfig apache2 on
|
||
service apache2 start
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
FreeBSD (Nginx, but you could also use the `apache24` package):
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
pkg install nginx php56-gettext php56-ldap php56-openssl php56-mysql php56-pdo_mysql php56-pgsql php56-pdo_pgsql php56-sockets php56-gd pecl-imagick pecl-intl
|
||
sysrc php_fpm_enable=yes
|
||
sysrc nginx_enable=yes
|
||
sed -i '' "s/listen\ =\ 127.0.0.1:9000/listen\ =\ \/var\/run\/php5-fpm.sock/" /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.conf

sed -i '' "s/;listen.group/listen.group/" /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.conf
|
||
sed -i '' "s/;listen.mode/listen.mode/" /usr/local/etc/php-fpm.conf
|
||
service php-fpm start
|
||
service nginx start
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Alpine Linux:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
apk add apache2 php7-apache2
|
||
sed -i -e "s/^#LoadModule rewrite_module/LoadModule rewrite_module/" /etc/apache2/httpd.conf
|
||
rc-update add apache2 default
|
||
rc-service apache2 start
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Firewall Rules <a id="icinga2-user-interface-firewall-rules"></a>
|
||
|
||
Enable port 80 (http). Best practice is to only enable port 443 (https) and use TLS certificates.
|
||
|
||
firewall-cmd:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
firewall-cmd --add-service=http
|
||
firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=http
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
iptables:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp --dport 80 -j ACCEPT
|
||
service iptables save
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
FreeBSD:
|
||
Please consult the [FreeBSD Handbook](https://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/firewalls.html) how to configure one of FreeBSD's firewalls.
|
||
|
||
|
||
### Setting Up Icinga 2 REST API <a id="setting-up-rest-api"></a>
|
||
|
||
Icinga Web 2 and other web interfaces require the [REST API](12-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-setup)
|
||
to send actions (reschedule check, etc.) and query object details.
|
||
|
||
You can run the CLI command `icinga2 api setup` to enable the
|
||
`api` [feature](11-cli-commands.md#enable-features) and set up
|
||
certificates as well as a new API user `root` with an auto-generated password in the
|
||
`/etc/icinga2/conf.d/api-users.conf` configuration file:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
icinga2 api setup
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Edit the `api-users.conf` file and add a new ApiUser object. Specify the [permissions](12-icinga2-api.md#icinga2-api-permissions)
|
||
attribute with minimal permissions required by Icinga Web 2.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
vim /etc/icinga2/conf.d/api-users.conf
|
||
|
||
object ApiUser "icingaweb2" {
|
||
password = "Wijsn8Z9eRs5E25d"
|
||
permissions = [ "status/query", "actions/*", "objects/modify/*", "objects/query/*" ]
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Restart Icinga 2 to activate the configuration.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
systemctl restart icinga2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Alpine Linux:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
rc-service icinga2 restart
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Installing Icinga Web 2 <a id="installing-icingaweb2"></a>
