# Upgrading Icinga 2 <a id="upgrading-icinga-2"></a>
|
|
|
|
Upgrading Icinga 2 is usually quite straightforward.
|
|
Ordinarily the only manual steps involved
|
|
are scheme updates for the IDO database.
|
|
|
|
Specific version upgrades are described below. Please note that version
|
|
updates are incremental. An upgrade from v2.6 to v2.8 requires to
|
|
follow the instructions for v2.7 too.
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading to v2.11 <a id="upgrading-to-2-11"></a>
|
|
|
|
### Packages <a id="upgrading-to-2-11-packages"></a>
|
|
|
|
EOL distributions where no packages are available with this release:
|
|
|
|
* SLES 11
|
|
* Ubuntu 14 LTS
|
|
* RHEL/CentOS 6 x86
|
|
|
|
#### Added: Boost 1.66+
|
|
|
|
The rewrite of our core network stack for cluster and REST API
|
|
requires newer Boost versions, specifically >= 1.66. For technical
|
|
details, please continue reading in [this issue](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga2/issues/7041).
|
|
|
|
The package dependencies have been updated for RPM/DEB already.
|
|
On platforms where EPEL or Backports cannot satisfy this dependency,
|
|
we provide Boost as package on our [package repository](https://packages.icinga.com):
|
|
|
|
* SLES 12 (this replaces the SDK requirement)
|
|
* CentOS 6 x64
|
|
* Debian Jessie
|
|
* Ubuntu Xenial/Bionic
|
|
|
|
After upgrade, you may remove the old Boost packages (1.53 or anything above)
|
|
if you don't need them anymore.
|
|
|
|
#### Removed: YAJL
|
|
|
|
Our JSON library, namely [YAJL](https://github.com/lloyd/yajl), isn't maintained anymore
|
|
and may cause [crashes](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga2/issues/6684).
|
|
|
|
It is replaced by [JSON for Modern C++](https://github.com/nlohmann/json) by Niels Lohmann
|
|
and compiled into the binary as header only include. It helps our way to C++11 and allows
|
|
to fix additional UTF8 issues more easily. Read more about its [design goals](https://github.com/nlohmann/json#design-goals)
|
|
and [benchmarks](https://github.com/miloyip/nativejson-benchmark#parsing-time).
|
|
|
|
### HA-aware Features <a id="upgrading-to-2-11-ha-aware-features"></a>
|
|
|
|
v2.11 introduces additional HA functionality similar to the DB IDO feature.
|
|
This enables the feature being active only on one endpoint while the other
|
|
endpoint is paused. When one endpoint is shut down, automatic failover happens.
|
|
|
|
This feature is turned off by default keeping the current behaviour. If you need
|
|
it active on just one endpoint, set `enable_ha = true` on both endpoints in the
|
|
feature configuration.
|
|
|
|
This affects the following features:
|
|
|
|
* [Elasticsearch](09-object-types.md#objecttype-elasticsearchwriter)
|
|
* [Gelf](09-object-types.md#objecttype-gelfwriter)
|
|
* [Graphite](09-object-types.md#objecttype-graphitewriter)
|
|
* [InfluxDB](09-object-types.md#objecttype-influxdbwriter)
|
|
* [OpenTsdb](09-object-types.md#objecttype-opentsdbwriter)
|
|
* [Perfdata](09-object-types.md#objecttype-perfdatawriter) (for PNP)
|
|
|
|
### HA Failover <a id="upgrading-to-2-11-ha-failover"></a>
|
|
|
|
The reconnect failover has been improved, and the default `failover_timeout`
|
|
for the DB IDO features has been lowered from 60 to 30 seconds.
|
|
Object authority updates (required for balancing in the cluster) happen
|
|
more frequenty (was 30, is 10 seconds).
|
|
Also the cold startup without object authority updates has been reduced
|
|
from 60 to 30 seconds. This is to allow cluster reconnects (lowered from 60s to 10s in 2.10)
|
|
before actually considering a failover/split brain scenario.
|
|
|
|
The [IdoMysqlConnection](09-object-types.md#objecttype-idomysqlconnection) and [IdoPgsqlConnection](09-object-types.md#objecttype-idopgsqlconnection)
|
|
objects provide a new attribute named `last_failover` which shows the last failover timestamp.
|
|
This value also is available in the [ido](10-icinga-template-library.md#itl-icinga-ido) CheckCommand output.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### CLI Commands <a id="upgrading-to-2-11-cli-commands"></a>
|
|
|
|
CLI commands such as `api setup`, `node wizard/setup`, `feature enable/disable/list`
|
|
required root permissions previously. Since the file permissions allow
|
|
the Icinga user to change things already, and users kept asking to
|
|
run Icinga on their own webspace without root permissions, this is now possible
|
|
with 2.11.
|
|
|
|
If you are running the commands with a different user than the
|
|
compiled `ICINGA_USER` and `ICINGA_GROUP` CMake settings (`icinga` everywhere,
|
|
except Debian with `nagios` for historical reasons), ensure that this
|
|
user has the capabilities to change to a different user.
|
|
|
|
If you still encounter problems, run the aforementioned CLI commands as root,
|
|
or with sudo.
|
|
|
|
### Configuration <a id="upgrading-to-2-11-configuration"></a>
|
|
|
|
The deprecated `concurrent_checks` attribute in the [checker feature](09-object-types.md#objecttype-checkercomponent)
|
|
has no effect anymore if set. Please use the [MaxConcurrentChecks](17-language-reference.md#icinga-constants-global-config)
|
|
constant in [constants.conf](04-configuring-icinga-2.md#constants-conf) instead.
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading to v2.10 <a id="upgrading-to-2-10"></a>
|
|
|
|
### Path Constant Changes <a id="upgrading-to-2-10-path-constant-changes"></a>
|
|
|
|
During package upgrades you may see a notice that the configuration
|
|
content of features has changed. This is due to a more general approach
|
|
with path constants in v2.10.
|
|
|
|
The known constants `SysconfDir` and `LocalStateDir` stay intact and won't
|
|
break on upgrade.
|
|
If you are using these constants in your own custom command definitions
|
|
or other objects, you are advised to revise them and update them according
|
|
to the [documentation](17-language-reference.md#icinga-constants).
|
|
|
|
Example diff:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
object NotificationCommand "mail-service-notification" {
|
|
- command = [ SysconfDir + "/icinga2/scripts/mail-service-notification.sh" ]
|
|
+ command = [ ConfigDir + "/scripts/mail-service-notification.sh" ]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you have the `ICINGA2_RUN_DIR` environment variable configured in the
|
|
sysconfig file, you need to rename it to `ICINGA2_INIT_RUN_DIR`. `ICINGA2_STATE_DIR`
|
|
has been removed and this setting has no effect.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> This is important if you rely on the sysconfig configuration in your own scripts.
|
|
|
|
### New Constants <a id="upgrading-to-2-10-path-new-constants"></a>
|
|
|
|
New [Icinga constants](17-language-reference.md#icinga-constants) have been added in this release.
|
|
|
|
* `Environment` for specifying the Icinga environment. Defaults to not set.
|
|
* `ApiBindHost` and `ApiBindPort` to allow overriding the default ApiListener values. This will be used for an Icinga addon only.
|
|
|
|
### Configuration: Namespaces <a id="upgrading-to-2-10-configuration-namespaces"></a>
|
|
|
|
The keywords `namespace` and `using` are now [reserved](17-language-reference.md#reserved-keywords) for the namespace functionality provided
|
|
with v2.10. Read more about how it works [here](17-language-reference.md#namespaces).
|
|
|
|
### Configuration: ApiListener <a id="upgrading-to-2-10-configuration-apilistener"></a>
|
|
|
|
Anonymous JSON-RPC connections in the cluster can now be configured with `max_anonymous_clients`
|
|
attribute.
|
|
The corresponding REST API results from `/v1/status/ApiListener` in `json_rpc` have been renamed
|
|
from `clients` to `anonymous_clients` to better reflect their purpose. Authenticated clients
|
|
are counted as connected endpoints. A similar change is there for the performance data metrics.
|
|
|
|
The TLS handshake timeout defaults to 10 seconds since v2.8.2. This can now be configured
|
|
with the configuration attribute `tls_handshake_timeout`. Beware of performance issues
|
|
with setting a too high value.
|
|
|
|
### API: schedule-downtime Action <a id="upgrading-to-2-10-api-schedule-downtime-action"></a>
|
|
|
|
The attribute `child_options` was previously accepting 0,1,2 for specific child downtime settings.
|
|
This behaviour stays intact, but the new proposed way are specific constants as values (`DowntimeNoChildren`, `DowntimeTriggeredChildren`, `DowntimeNonTriggeredChildren`).
|
|
|
|
### Notifications: Recovery and Acknowledgement <a id="upgrading-to-2-10-notifications"></a>
|
|
|
|
When a user should be notified on `Problem` and `Acknowledgement`, v2.10 now checks during
|
|
the `Acknowledgement` notification event whether this user has been notified about a problem before.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
types = [ Problem, Acknowledgement, Recovery ]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If **no** `Problem` notification was sent, and the types filter includes problems for this user,
|
|
the `Acknowledgement` notification is **not** sent.
|
|
|
|
In contrast to that, the following configuration always sends `Acknowledgement` notifications.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
types = [ Acknowledgement, Recovery ]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This change also restores the old behaviour for `Recovery` notifications. The above configuration
|
|
leaving out the `Problem` type can be used to only receive recovery notifications. If `Problem`
|
|
is added to the types again, Icinga 2 checks whether it has notified a user of a problem when
|
|
sending the recovery notification.
|
|
|
|
More details can be found in [this PR](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga2/pull/6527).
|
|
|
|
### Stricter configuration validation
|
|
|
|
Some config errors are now fatal. While it never worked before, icinga2 refuses to start now!
|
|
|
|
For example the following started to give a fatal error in 2.10:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
object Zone "XXX" {
|
|
endpoints = [ "master-server" ]
|
|
parent = "global-templates"
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```critical/config: Error: Zone 'XXX' can not have a global zone as parent.```
|
|
|
|
### Package Changes <a id="upgrading-to-2-10-package-changes"></a>
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu drops the `libicinga2` package. `apt-get upgrade icinga2`
|
|
won't remove such packages leaving the upgrade in an unsatisfied state.
|
|
|
|
Please use `apt-get full-upgrade` or `apt-get dist-upgrade` instead, as explained [here](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga2/issues/6695#issuecomment-430585915).
|
|
|
|
On RHEL/CentOS/Fedora, `icinga2-libs` has been obsoleted. Unfortunately yum's dependency
|
|
resolver doesn't allow to install older versions than 2.10 then. Please
|
|
read [here](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga-packaging/issues/114#issuecomment-429264827)
|
|
for details.
|
|
|
|
RPM packages dropped the [Classic UI](16-upgrading-icinga-2.md#upgrading-to-2-8-removed-classicui-config-package)
|
|
package in v2.8, Debian/Ubuntu packages were forgotten. This is now the case with this
|
|
release. Icinga 1.x is EOL by the end of 2018, plan your migration to [Icinga Web 2](https://icinga.com/docs/icingaweb2/latest/).
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading to v2.9 <a id="upgrading-to-2-9"></a>
|
|
|
|
### Deprecation and Removal Notes <a id="upgrading-to-2-9-deprecation-removal-notes"></a>
|
|
|
|
- Deprecation of 1.x compatibility features: `StatusDataWriter`, `CompatLogger`, `CheckResultReader`. Their removal is scheduled for 2.11.
|
|
Icinga 1.x is EOL and will be out of support by the end of 2018.
|
|
- Removal of Icinga Studio. It always has been experimental and did not satisfy our high quality standards. We've therefore removed it.
|
|
|
|
### Sysconfig Changes <a id="upgrading-to-2-9-sysconfig-changes"></a>
|
|
|
|
The security fixes in v2.8.2 required moving specific runtime settings
|
|
into the Sysconfig file and environment. This included that Icinga 2
|
|
would itself parse this file and read the required variables. This has generated
|
|
numerous false-positive log messages and led to many support questions. v2.9.0
|
|
changes this in the standard way to read these variables from the environment, and use
|
|
sane compile-time defaults.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> In order to upgrade, remove everything in the sysconfig file and re-apply
|
|
> your changes.
|
|
|
|
There is a bug with existing sysconfig files where path variables are not expanded
|
|
because systemd [does not support](https://github.com/systemd/systemd/issues/2123)
|
|
shell variable expansion. This worked with SysVInit though.
|
|
|
|
Edit the sysconfig file and either remove everything, or edit this line
|
|
on RHEL 7. Modify the path for other distributions.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
vim /etc/sysconfig/icinga2
|
|
|
|
-ICINGA2_PID_FILE=$ICINGA2_RUN_DIR/icinga2/icinga2.pid
|
|
+ICINGA2_PID_FILE=/run/icinga2/icinga2.pid
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If you want to adjust the number of open files for the Icinga application
|
|
for example, you would just add this setting like this on RHEL 7:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
vim /etc/sysconfig/icinga2
|
|
|
|
ICINGA2_RLIMIT_FILES=50000
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Restart Icinga 2 afterwards, the systemd service file automatically puts the
|
|
value into the application's environment where this is read on startup.
|
|
|
|
### Setup Wizard Changes <a id="upgrading-to-2-9-setup-wizard-changes"></a>
|
|
|
|
Client and satellite setups previously had the example configuration in `conf.d` included
|
|
by default. This caused trouble on config sync, or with locally executed checks generating
|
|
wrong check results for command endpoint clients.
|
|
|
|
In v2.9.0 `node wizard`, `node setup` and the graphical Windows wizard will disable
|
|
the inclusion by default. You can opt-out and explicitly enable it again if needed.
|
|
|
|
In addition to the default global zones `global-templates` and `director-global`,
|
|
the setup wizards also offer to specify your own custom global zones and generate
|
|
the required configuration automatically.
|
|
|
|
The setup wizards also use full qualified names for Zone and Endpoint object generation,
|
|
either the default values (FQDN for clients) or the user supplied input. This removes
|
|
the dependency on the `NodeName` and `ZoneName` constant and helps to immediately see
|
|
the parent-child relationship. Those doing support will also see the benefit in production.
|
|
|
|
### CLI Command Changes <a id="upgrading-to-2-9-cli-changes"></a>
|
|
|
|
The [node setup](06-distributed-monitoring.md#distributed-monitoring-automation-cli-node-setup)
|
|
parameter `--master_host` was deprecated and replaced with `--parent_host`.
|
|
This parameter is now optional to allow connection-less client setups similar to the `node wizard`
|
|
CLI command. The `parent_zone` parameter has been added to modify the parent zone name e.g.
|
|
for client-to-satellite setups.
|
|
|
|
The `api user` command which was released in v2.8.2 turned out to cause huge problems with
|
|
configuration validation, windows restarts and OpenSSL versions. It is therefore removed in 2.9,
|
|
the `password_hash` attribute for the ApiUser object stays intact but has no effect. This is to ensure
|
|
that clients don't break on upgrade. We will revise this feature in future development iterations.
|
|
|
|
### Configuration Changes <a id="upgrading-to-2-9-config-changes"></a>
|
|
|
|
The CORS attributes `access_control_allow_credentials`, `access_control_allow_headers` and
|
|
`access_control_allow_methods` are now controlled by Icinga 2 and cannot be changed anymore.
|
|
|
|
### Unique Generated Names <a id="upgrading-to-2-9-unique-name-changes"></a>
|
|
|
|
With the removal of RHEL 5 as supported platform, we can finally use real unique IDs.
|
|
This is reflected in generating names for e.g. API stage names. Previously it was a handcrafted
|
|
mix of local FQDN, timestamps and random numbers.
|
|
|
|
### Custom Vars not updating <a id="upgrading-to-2-9-custom-vars-not-updating"></a>
|
|
|
|
A rare issue preventing the custom vars of objects created prior to 2.9.0 being updated when changed may occur. To
|
|
remedy this, truncate the customvar tables and restart Icinga 2. The following is an example of how to do this with mysql:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ mysql -uroot -picinga icinga
|
|
MariaDB [icinga]> truncate icinga_customvariables;
|
|
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.05 sec)
|
|
MariaDB [icinga]> truncate icinga_customvariablestatus;
|
|
Query OK, 0 rows affected (0.03 sec)
|
|
MariaDB [icinga]> exit
|
|
Bye
|
|
$ sudo systemctl restart icinga2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Custom vars should now stay up to date.
|
|
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading to v2.8.2 <a id="upgrading-to-2-8-2"></a>
|
|
|
|
With version 2.8.2 the location of settings formerly found in `/etc/icinga2/init.conf` has changed. They are now
|
|
located in the sysconfig, `/etc/sysconfig/icinga2` (RPM) or `/etc/default/icinga2` (DPKG) on most systems. The
|
|
`init.conf` file has been removed and its settings will be ignored. These changes are only relevant if you edited the
|
|
`init.conf`. Below is a table displaying the new names for the affected settings.
|
|
|
|
Old `init.conf` | New `sysconfig/icinga2`
|
|
----------------|------------------------
|
|
RunAsUser | ICINGA2\_USER
|
|
RunAsGroup | ICINGA2\_GROUP
|
|
RLimitFiles | ICINGA2\_RLIMIT\_FILES

|
|
## Upgrading to v2.8 <a id="upgrading-to-2-8"></a>
|
|
|
|
### DB IDO Schema Update to 2.8.0 <a id="upgrading-to-2-8-db-ido"></a>
|
|
|
|
There are additional indexes and schema fixes which require an update.
|
|
|
|
Please proceed here for [MySQL](16-upgrading-icinga-2.md#upgrading-mysql-db) or [PostgreSQL](16-upgrading-icinga-2.md#upgrading-postgresql-db).
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> `2.8.1.sql` fixes a unique constraint problem with fresh 2.8.0 installations.
|
|
> You don't need this update if you are upgrading from an older version.
|
|
|
|
### Changed Certificate Paths <a id="upgrading-to-2-8-certificate-paths"></a>
|
|
|
|
The default certificate path was changed from `/etc/icinga2/pki` to
|
|
`/var/lib/icinga2/certs`.
|
|
|
|
Old Path | New Path
|
|
---------------------------------------------------|---------------------------------------------------
|
|
`/etc/icinga2/pki/icinga2-client1.localdomain.crt` | `/var/lib/icinga2/certs/icinga2-client1.localdomain.crt`
|
|
`/etc/icinga2/pki/icinga2-client1.localdomain.key` | `/var/lib/icinga2/certs/icinga2-client1.localdomain.key`
|
|
`/etc/icinga2/pki/ca.crt` | `/var/lib/icinga2/certs/ca.crt`
|
|
|
|
This applies to Windows clients in the same way: `%ProgramData%\etc\icinga2\pki`
|
|
was moved to `%ProgramData%\var\lib\icinga2\certs`.
|
|
|
|
Old Path | New Path
|
|
----------------------------------------------------------------|----------------------------------------------------------------
|
|
`%ProgramData%\etc\icinga2\pki\icinga2-client1.localdomain.crt` | `%ProgramData%\var\lib\icinga2\certs\icinga2-client1.localdomain.crt`
|
|
`%ProgramData%\etc\icinga2\pki\icinga2-client1.localdomain.key` | `%ProgramData%\var\lib\icinga2\certs\icinga2-client1.localdomain.key`
|
|
`%ProgramData%\etc\icinga2\pki\ca.crt` | `%ProgramData%\var\lib\icinga2\certs\ca.crt`
|
|
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> The default expected path for client certificates is `/var/lib/icinga2/certs/ + NodeName + {.crt,.key}`.
|
|
> The `NodeName` constant is usually the FQDN and certificate common name (CN). Check the [conventions](06-distributed-monitoring.md#distributed-monitoring-conventions)
|
|
> section inside the Distributed Monitoring chapter.
|
|
|
|
The [setup CLI commands](06-distributed-monitoring.md#distributed-monitoring-setup-master) and the
|
|
default [ApiListener configuration](06-distributed-monitoring.md#distributed-monitoring-apilistener)
|
|
have been adjusted to these paths too.
|
|
|
|
The [ApiListener](09-object-types.md#objecttype-apilistener) object attributes `cert_path`, `key_path`
|
|
and `ca_path` have been deprecated and removed from the example configuration.
|
|
|
|
#### Migration Path <a id="upgrading-to-2-8-certificate-paths-migration-path"></a>
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Icinga 2 automatically migrates the certificates to the new default location if they
|
|
> are configured and detected in `/etc/icinga2/pki`.
|
|
|
|
During startup, the migration kicks in and ensures to copy the certificates to the new
|
|
location. This will also happen if someone updates the certificate files in `/etc/icinga2/pki`
|
|
to ensure that the new certificate location always has the latest files.
|
|
|
|
This has been implemented in the Icinga 2 binary to ensure it works on both Linux/Unix
|
|
and the Windows platform.
|
|
|
|
If you are not using the built-in CLI commands and setup wizards to deploy the client certificates,
|
|
please ensure to update your deployment tools/scripts. This mainly affects
|
|
|
|
* Puppet modules
|
|
* Ansible playbooks
|
|
* Chef cookbooks
|
|
* Salt recipes
|
|
* Custom scripts, e.g. Windows Powershell or self-made implementations
|
|
|
|
In order to support a smooth migration between versions older than 2.8 and future releases,
|
|
the built-in certificate migration path is planned to exist as long as the deprecated
|
|
`ApiListener` object attributes exist.
|
|
|
|
You are safe to use the existing configuration paths inside the `api` feature.
|
|
|
|
**Example**
|
|
|
|
Look at the following example taken from the Director Linux deployment script for clients.
|
|
|
|
* Ensure that the default certificate path is changed from `/etc/icinga2/pki` to `/var/lib/icinga2/certs`.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
-ICINGA2_SSL_DIR="${ICINGA2_CONF_DIR}/pki"
|
|
+ICINGA2_SSL_DIR="${ICINGA2_STATE_DIR}/lib/icinga2/certs"
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
* Remove the ApiListener configuration attributes.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
object ApiListener "api" {
|
|
- cert_path = SysconfDir + "/icinga2/pki/${ICINGA2_NODENAME}.crt"
|
|
- key_path = SysconfDir + "/icinga2/pki/${ICINGA2_NODENAME}.key"
|
|
- ca_path = SysconfDir + "/icinga2/pki/ca.crt"
|
|
accept_commands = true
|
|
accept_config = true
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Test the script with a fresh client installation before putting it into production.
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**
|
|
>
|
|
> Please support module and script developers in their migration. If you find
|
|
> any project which would require these changes, create an issue or a patchset in a PR

### On-Demand Signing and CA Proxy <a id="upgrading-to-2-8-on-demand-signing-ca-proxy"></a>
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 v2.8 supports the following features inside the cluster:
|
|
|
|
* Forward signing requests from clients through a satellite instance to a signing master ("CA Proxy").
|
|
* Signing requests without a ticket. The master instance allows to list and sign CSRs ("On-Demand Signing").
|
|
|
|
In order to use these features, **all instances must be upgraded to v2.8**.
|
|
|
|
More details in [this chapter](06-distributed-monitoring.md#distributed-monitoring-setup-sign-certificates-master).
|
|
|
|
### Windows Client <a id="upgrading-to-2-8-windows-client"></a>
|
|
|
|
Windows versions older than Windows 10/Server 2016 require the [Universal C Runtime for Windows](https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/2999226/update-for-universal-c-runtime-in-windows).
|
|
|
|
### Removed Bottom Up Client Mode <a id="upgrading-to-2-8-removed-bottom-up-client-mode"></a>
|
|
|
|
This client mode was deprecated in 2.6 and was removed in 2.8.
|
|
|
|
The node CLI command does not provide `list` or `update-config` anymore.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> The old migration guide can be found on [GitHub](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga2/blob/v2.7.0/doc/06-distributed-monitoring.md#bottom-up-migration-to-top-down-).
|
|
|
|
The clients don't need to have a local `conf.d` directory included.
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 continues to run with the generated and imported configuration.
|
|
You are advised to [migrate](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga2/issues/4798)
|
|
any existing configuration to the "top down" mode with the help of the
|
|
Icinga Director or config management tools such as Puppet, Ansible, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Removed Classic UI Config Package <a id="upgrading-to-2-8-removed-classicui-config-package"></a>
|
|
|
|
The config meta package `classicui-config` and the configuration files
|
|
have been removed. You need to manually configure
|
|
this legacy interface. Create a backup of the configuration
|
|
before upgrading and re-configure it afterwards.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### Flapping Configuration <a id="upgrading-to-2-8-flapping-configuration"></a>
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 v2.8 implements a new flapping detection algorithm which splits the
|
|
threshold configuration into low and high settings.
|
|
|
|
`flapping_threshold` is deprecated and does not have any effect when flapping
|
|
is enabled. Please remove `flapping_threshold` from your configuration. This
|
|
attribute will be removed in v2.9.
|
|
|
|
Instead you need to use the `flapping_threshold_low` and `flapping_threshold_high`
|
|
attributes. More details can be found [here](08-advanced-topics.md#check-flapping).
|
|
|
|
### Deprecated Configuration Attributes <a id="upgrading-to-2-8-deprecated-configuration"></a>
|
|
|
|
Object | Attribute

|
|
## Upgrading to v2.7 <a id="upgrading-to-2-7"></a>
|
|
|
|
v2.7.0 provided new notification scripts and commands. Please ensure to
|
|
update your configuration accordingly. An advisory has been published [here](https://icinga.com/2017/08/23/advisory-for-icinga-2-v2-7-update-and-mail-notification-scripts/).
|
|
|
|
In case are having troubles with OpenSSL 1.1.0 and the
|
|
public CA certificates, please read [this advisory](https://icinga.com/2017/08/30/advisory-for-ssl-problems-with-leading-zeros-on-openssl-1-1-0/)
|
|
and check the [troubleshooting chapter](15-troubleshooting.md#troubleshooting).
|
|
|
|
If Icinga 2 fails to start with an empty reference to `$ICINGA2_CACHE_DIR`
|
|
ensure to set it inside `/etc/sysconfig/icinga2` (RHEL) or `/etc/default/icinga2` (Debian).
|
|
|
|
RPM packages will put a file called `/etc/sysconfig/icinga2.rpmnew`
|
|
if you have modified the original file.
|
|
|
|
Example on CentOS 7:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
vim /etc/sysconfig/icinga2
|
|
|
|
ICINGA2_CACHE_DIR=/var/cache/icinga2
|
|
|
|
systemctl restart icinga2
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading the MySQL database <a id="upgrading-mysql-db"></a>
|
|
|
|
If you want to upgrade an existing Icinga 2 instance, check the
|
|
`/usr/share/icinga2-ido-mysql/schema/upgrade` directory for incremental schema upgrade file(s).
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> If there isn't an upgrade file for your current version available, there's nothing to do.
|
|
|
|
Apply all database schema upgrade files incrementally.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# mysql -u root -p icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-mysql/schema/upgrade/<version>.sql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The Icinga 2 DB IDO feature checks the required database schema version on startup
|
|
and generates an log message if not satisfied.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Example:** You are upgrading Icinga 2 from version `2.4.0` to `2.8.0`. Look into
|
|
the `upgrade` directory:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ ls /usr/share/icinga2-ido-mysql/schema/upgrade/
|
|
2.0.2.sql 2.1.0.sql 2.2.0.sql 2.3.0.sql 2.4.0.sql 2.5.0.sql 2.6.0.sql 2.8.0.sql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There are two new upgrade files called `2.5.0.sql`, `2.6.0.sql` and `2.8.0.sql`
|
|
which must be applied incrementally to your IDO database.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# mysql -u root -p icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-mysql/schema/upgrade/2.5.0.sql
|
|
# mysql -u root -p icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-mysql/schema/upgrade/2.6.0.sql
|
|
# mysql -u root -p icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-mysql/schema/upgrade/2.8.0.sql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Upgrading the PostgreSQL database <a id="upgrading-postgresql-db"></a>
|
|
|
|
If you want to upgrade an existing Icinga 2 instance, check the
|
|
`/usr/share/icinga2-ido-pgsql/schema/upgrade` directory for incremental schema upgrade file(s).
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> If there isn't an upgrade file for your current version available, there's nothing to do.
|
|
|
|
Apply all database schema upgrade files incrementally.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# export PGPASSWORD=icinga
|
|
# psql -U icinga -d icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-pgsql/schema/upgrade/<version>.sql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The Icinga 2 DB IDO feature checks the required database schema version on startup
|
|
and generates an log message if not satisfied.
|
|
|
|
**Example:** You are upgrading Icinga 2 from version `2.4.0` to `2.8.0`. Look into
|
|
the `upgrade` directory:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
$ ls /usr/share/icinga2-ido-pgsql/schema/upgrade/
|
|
2.0.2.sql 2.1.0.sql 2.2.0.sql 2.3.0.sql 2.4.0.sql 2.5.0.sql 2.6.0.sql 2.8.0.sql
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
There are two new upgrade files called `2.5.0.sql`, `2.6.0.sql` and `2.8.0.sql`
|
|
which must be applied incrementally to your IDO database.
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
# export PGPASSWORD=icinga
|
|
# psql -U icinga -d icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-pgsql/schema/upgrade/2.5.0.sql
|
|
# psql -U icinga -d icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-pgsql/schema/upgrade/2.6.0.sql
|
|
# psql -U icinga -d icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-pgsql/schema/upgrade/2.8.0.sql
|
|
```
