# <a id="getting-started"></a> Getting Started
|
|
|
|
This tutorial is a step-by-step introduction to installing Icinga 2 and
|
|
available Icinga web interfaces. It assumes that you are familiar with
|
|
the system you're installing Icinga 2 on.
|
|
|
|
Details on troubleshooting problems can be found [here](#troubleshooting).
|
|
|
|
## <a id="setting-up-icinga2"></a> Setting up Icinga 2
|
|
|
|
First off you will 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.
|
|
|
|
Distribution | Repository
|
|
------------------------|---------------------------
|
|
Debian | [Upstream](https://packages.debian.org/sid/icinga2), [DebMon](http://debmon.org/packages/debmon-wheezy/icinga2), [Icinga Repository](http://packages.icinga.org/debian/)
|
|
Ubuntu | [Upstream](https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/icinga2), [Icinga PPA](https://launchpad.net/~formorer/+archive/ubuntu/icinga), [Icinga Repository](http://packages.icinga.org/ubuntu/)
|
|
RHEL/CentOS | [Icinga Repository](http://packages.icinga.org/epel/)
|
|
OpenSUSE | [Icinga Repository](http://packages.icinga.org/openSUSE/), [Server Monitoring Repository](https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/server:monitoring/icinga2)
|
|
SLES | [Icinga Repository](http://packages.icinga.org/SUSE/)
|
|
Gentoo | [Upstream](http://packages.gentoo.org/package/net-analyzer/icinga2)
|
|
FreeBSD | [Upstream](http://www.freshports.org/net-mgmt/icinga2)
|
|
ArchLinux | [Upstream](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/icinga2)
|
|
|
|
Packages for distributions other than the ones listed above may also be
|
|
available. Please contact your distribution packagers.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="installing-requirements"></a> Installing Requirements for Icinga 2
|
|
|
|
You need to add the Icinga repository to your package management configuration.
|
|
Below is a list with examples for the various distributions.
|
|
|
|
Debian (debmon):
|
|
|
|
# wget -O - http://debmon.org/debmon/repo.key 2>/dev/null | apt-key add -
|
|
# cat >/etc/apt/sources.list.d/debmon.list<<EOF
|
|
deb http://debmon.org/debmon debmon-wheezy main
|
|
EOF
|
|
# apt-get update
|
|
|
|
Ubuntu (PPA):
|
|
|
|
# add-apt-repository ppa:formorer/icinga
|
|
# apt-get update
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS:
|
|
|
|
# rpm --import http://packages.icinga.org/icinga.key
|
|
# wget http://packages.icinga.org/epel/ICINGA-release.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/ICINGA-release.repo
|
|
# yum makecache
|
|
|
|
Fedora:
|
|
|
|
# wget http://packages.icinga.org/fedora/ICINGA-release.repo -O /etc/yum.repos.d/ICINGA-release.repo
|
|
# yum makecache
|
|
|
|
SLES:
|
|
|
|
# zypper ar http://packages.icinga.org/SUSE/ICINGA-release.repo
|
|
# zypper ref
|
|
|
|
OpenSUSE:
|
|
|
|
# zypper ar http://packages.icinga.org/openSUSE/ICINGA-release.repo
|
|
# zypper ref
|
|
|
|
The packages for RHEL/CentOS depend on other packages which are distributed
|
|
as part of the [EPEL repository](http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL). Please
|
|
make sure to enable this repository by following
|
|
[these instructions](#http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL#How_can_I_use_these_extra_packages.3F).
|
|
|
|
### <a id="installing-icinga2"></a> Installing Icinga 2
|
|
|
|
You can install Icinga 2 by using your distribution's package manager
|
|
to install the `icinga2` package.
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu:
|
|
|
|
# apt-get install icinga2
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS/Fedora:
|
|
|
|
# yum install icinga2
|
|
|
|
SLES/OpenSUSE:
|
|
|
|
# zypper install icinga2
|
|
|
|
On RHEL/CentOS and SLES you will need to use `chkconfig` to enable the
|
|
`icinga2` service. You can manually start Icinga 2 using `service icinga2 start`.
|
|
|
|
# chkconfig icinga2 on
|
|
# service icinga2 start
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS 7 use [Systemd](#systemd-service) with `systemctl {enable,start} icinga2`.
|
|
|
|
# systemctl enable icinga2
|
|
# systemctl start icinga2
|
|
|
|
Some parts of Icinga 2's functionality are available as separate packages:
|
|
|
|
Name | Description
|
|
------------------------|--------------------------------
|
|
icinga2-ido-mysql | [DB IDO](#configuring-db-ido) provider module for MySQL
|
|
icinga2-ido-pgsql | [DB IDO](#configuring-db-ido) provider module for PostgreSQL
|
|
|
|
If you're running a distribution for which Icinga 2 packages are
|
|
not yet available you will need to use the release tarball which you
|
|
can download from the [Icinga website](https://www.icinga.org/). The
|
|
release tarballs contain an `INSTALL` file with further instructions.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="installation-enabled-features"></a> Enabled Features during Installation
|
|
|
|
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](#cli-command-feature)
|
|
to see which features are enabled and disabled.
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature list
|
|
Disabled features: api command compatlog debuglog graphite icingastatus ido-mysql ido-pgsql livestatus notification perfdata statusdata syslog
|
|
Enabled features: checker mainlog notification
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="installation-paths"></a> Installation Paths
|
|
|
|
By default Icinga 2 uses the following files and directories:
|
|
|
|
Path | Description
|
|
------------------------------------|------------------------------------
|
|
/etc/icinga2 | Contains Icinga 2 configuration files.
|
|
/etc/init.d/icinga2 | The Icinga 2 init script.
|
|
/usr/sbin/icinga2* | The Icinga 2 binary.
|
|
/usr/share/doc/icinga2 | Documentation files that come with Icinga 2.
|
|
/usr/share/icinga2/include | The Icinga Template Library and plugin command configuration.
|
|
/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/lib/icinga2 | Icinga 2 state file, cluster log, local CA and configuration files.
|
|
/var/log/icinga2 | Log file location and compat/ directory for the CompatLogger feature.
|
|
|
|
## <a id="setting-up-check-plugins"></a> Setting up Check Plugins
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
The recommended way of installing these standard plugins is to use your
|
|
distribution's package manager.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> The `Nagios Plugins` project was renamed to `Monitoring Plugins`
|
|
> in January 2014. At the time of this writing some packages are still
|
|
> using the old name while some distributions have adopted the new package
|
|
> name `monitoring-plugins` already.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> EPEL for RHEL/CentOS 7 is still in beta mode at the time of writing and does
|
|
> not provide a `monitoring-plugins` package. You are required to manually install
|
|
> them.
|
|
|
|
For your convenience here is a list of package names for some of the more
|
|
popular operating systems/distributions:
|
|
|
|
OS/Distribution | Package Name | Installation Path
|
|
-----------------------|--------------------|---------------------------
|
|
RHEL/CentOS (EPEL) | nagios-plugins-all | /usr/lib/nagios/plugins or /usr/lib64/nagios/plugins
|
|
Debian | nagios-plugins | /usr/lib/nagios/plugins
|
|
FreeBSD | nagios-plugins | /usr/local/libexec/nagios
|
|
OS X (MacPorts) | nagios-plugins | /opt/local/libexec
|
|
|
|
Depending on which directory your plugins are installed into you may need to
|
|
update the global `PluginDir` constant in your Icinga 2 configuration. This macro is used
|
|
by the service templates contained in the Icinga Template Library to determine
|
|
where to find the plugin binaries.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="integrate-additional-plugins"></a> Integrate Additional Plugins
|
|
|
|
For some services you may need additional 'check plugins' which are not provided
|
|
by the official Monitoring Plugins project.
|
|
|
|
All existing Nagios or Icinga 1.x plugins work with Icinga 2. Here's a
|
|
list of popular community sites which host check plugins:
|
|
|
|
* [Icinga Exchange](https://exchange.icinga.org)
|
|
* [Icinga Wiki](https://wiki.icinga.org)
|
|
|
|
The recommended way of setting up these plugins is to copy them to a common directory
|
|
and create an extra global constant, e.g. `CustomPluginDir` in your [constants.conf](#constants-conf)
|
|
configuration file:
|
|
|
|
# cp check_snmp_int.pl /opt/plugins
|
|
# chmod +x /opt/plugins/check_snmp_int.pl
|
|
|
|
# cat /etc/icinga2/constants.conf
|
|
/**
|
|
* This file defines global constants which can be used in
|
|
* the other configuration files. At a minimum the
|
|
* PluginDir constant should be defined.
|
|
*/
|
|
|
|
const PluginDir = "/usr/lib/nagios/plugins"
|
|
const CustomPluginDir = "/opt/monitoring"
|
|
|
|
Prior to using the check plugin with Icinga 2 you should ensure that it is working properly
|
|
by trying to run it on the console using whichever user Icinga 2 is running as:
|
|
|
|
# su - icinga -s /bin/bash
|
|
$ /opt/plugins/check_snmp_int.pl --help
|
|
|
|
Additional libraries may be required for some plugins. Please consult the plugin
|
|
documentation and/or plugin provided README for installation instructions.
|
|
Sometimes plugins contain hard-coded paths to other components. Instead of changing
|
|
the plugin it might be easier to create logical links which is (more) update-safe.
|
|
|
|
Each plugin requires a [CheckCommand](#objecttype-checkcommand) object in your
|
|
configuration which can be used in the [Service](#objecttype-service) or
|
|
[Host](#objecttype-host) object definition. Examples for `CheckCommand`
|
|
objects can be found in the [Plugin Check Commands](#plugin-check-commands) shipped
|
|
with Icinga 2.
|
|
For further information on your monitoring configuration read the
|
|
[monitoring basics](#monitoring-basics).

## <a id="configuring-icinga2-first-steps"></a> Configuring Icinga 2: First Steps
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-conf"></a> icinga2.conf
|
|
|
|
An example configuration file is installed for you in `/etc/icinga2/icinga2.conf`.
|
|
|
|
Here's a brief description of the example configuration:
|
|
|
|
/**
|
|
* Icinga 2 configuration file
|
|
* - this is where you define settings for the Icinga application including
|
|
* which hosts/services to check.
|
|
*
|
|
* For an overview of all available configuration options please refer
|
|
* to the documentation that is distributed as part of Icinga 2.
|
|
*/
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 supports [C/C++-style comments](#comments).
|
|
|
|
/**
|
|
* The constants.conf defines global constants.
|
|
*/
|
|
include "constants.conf"
|
|
|
|
The `include` directive can be used to include other files.
|
|
|
|
/**
|
|
* The zones.conf defines zones for a cluster setup.
|
|
* Not required for single instance setups.
|
|
*/
|
|
include "zones.conf"
|
|
|
|
/**
|
|
* The Icinga Template Library (ITL) provides a number of useful templates
|
|
* and command definitions.
|
|
* Common monitoring plugin command definitions are included separately.
|
|
*/
|
|
include <itl>
|
|
include <plugins>
|
|
|
|
/**
|
|
* The features-available directory contains a number of configuration
|
|
* files for features which can be enabled and disabled using the
|
|
* icinga2 feature enable / icinga2 feature disable CLI commands.
|
|
* These commands work by creating and removing symbolic links in
|
|
* the features-enabled directory.
|
|
*/
|
|
include "features-enabled/*.conf"
|
|
|
|
This `include` directive takes care of including the configuration files for all
|
|
the features which have been enabled with `icinga2 feature enable`. See
|
|
[Enabling/Disabling Features](#features) for more details.
|
|
|
|
/**
|
|
* Although in theory you could define all your objects in this file
|
|
* the preferred way is to create separate directories and files in the conf.d
|
|
* directory. Each of these files must have the file extension ".conf".
|
|
*/
|
|
include_recursive "conf.d"
|
|
|
|
You can put your own configuration files in the `conf.d` directory. This
|
|
directive makes sure that all of your own configuration files are included.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="constants-conf"></a> constants.conf
|
|
|
|
The `constants.conf` configuration file can be used to define global constants:
|
|
|
|
/**
|
|
* This file defines global constants which can be used in
|
|
* the other configuration files.
|
|
*/
|
|
|
|
/* The directory which contains the plugins from the Monitoring Plugins project. */
|
|
const PluginDir = "/usr/lib/nagios/plugins"
|
|
|
|
/* Our local instance name. This should be the common name from the API certificate */
|
|
const NodeName = "localhost"
|
|
|
|
/* Our local zone name. */
|
|
const ZoneName = NodeName
|
|
|
|
### <a id="zones-conf"></a> zones.conf
|
|
|
|
The `zones.conf` configuration file can be used to configure `Endpoint` and `Zone` objects
|
|
required for a [distributed zone setup](#distributed-monitoring-high-availability). By default
|
|
a local dummy zone is defined based on the `NodeName` constant defined in
|
|
[constants.conf](#constants-conf).
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Not required for single instance installations.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="localhost-conf"></a> localhost.conf
|
|
|
|
The `conf.d/hosts/localhost.conf` file contains our first host definition:
|
|
|
|
/**
|
|
* A host definition. You can create your own configuration files
|
|
* in the conf.d directory (e.g. one per host). By default all *.conf
|
|
* files in this directory are included.
|
|
*/
|
|
|
|
object Host "localhost" {
|
|
import "generic-host"
|
|
|
|
address = "127.0.0.1"
|
|
address6 = "::1"
|
|
|
|
vars.os = "Linux"
|
|
vars.sla = "24x7"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
This defines the host `localhost`. The `import` keyword is used to import
|
|
the `generic-host` template which takes care of setting up the host check
|
|
command to `hostalive`. If you require a different check command, you can
|
|
override it in the object definition.
|
|
|
|
The `vars` attribute can be used to define custom attributes which are available
|
|
for check and notification commands. Most of the templates in the Icinga
|
|
Template Library require an `address` attribute.
|
|
|
|
The custom attribute `os` is evaluated by the `linux-servers` group in
|
|
`groups.conf `making the host `localhost` a member.
|
|
|
|
object HostGroup "linux-servers" {
|
|
display_name = "Linux Servers"
|
|
|
|
assign where host.vars.os == "Linux"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
A host notification apply rule in `notifications.conf` checks for the custom
|
|
attribute `sla` being set to `24x7` automatically applying a host notification.
|
|
|
|
/**
|
|
* The example notification apply rules.
|
|
*
|
|
* Only applied if host/service objects have
|
|
* the custom attribute `sla` set to `24x7`.
|
|
*/
|
|
|
|
apply Notification "mail-icingaadmin" to Host {
|
|
import "mail-host-notification"
|
|
|
|
user_groups = [ "icingaadmins" ]
|
|
|
|
assign where host.vars.sla == "24x7"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Now it's time to define services for the host object. Because these checks
|
|
are only available for the `localhost` host, they are organized below
|
|
`hosts/localhost/`.
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**
|
|
>
|
|
> The directory tree and file organisation is just an example. You are
|
|
> free to define your own strategy. Just keep in mind to include the
|
|
> main directories in the [icinga2.conf](#icinga2-conf) file.

host_name = "localhost"
|
|
check_command = "icinga"
|
|
vars.sla = "24x7"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
The command object `icinga` for the embedded health check is provided by the
|
|
[Icinga Template Library (ITL)](#itl) while `http_ip`, `ssh`, `load`, `processes`,
|
|
`users` and `disk` are all provided by the plugin check commands which we enabled
|
|
earlier by including the `itl` and `plugins` configuration file.
|
|
|
|
The Debian packages also ship an additional `apt` service check.
|
|
|
|
> **Best Practice**
|
|
>
|
|
> Instead of defining each service object and assigning it to a host object
|
|
> using the `host_name` attribute rather use the [apply rules](#apply)
|
|
> simplifying your configuration.
|
|
|
|
There are two generic services applied to all hosts in the host group `linux-servers`
|
|
and `windows-servers` by default: `ping4` and `ping6`. Host objects without
|
|
a valid `address` resp. `address6` attribute will be excluded.
|
|
|
|
apply Service "ping4" {
|
|
import "generic-service"
|
|
|
|
check_command = "ping4"
|
|
vars.sla = "24x7"
|
|
|
|
assign where "linux-servers" in host.groups
|
|
assign where "windows-servers" in host.groups
|
|
ignore where host.address == ""
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
apply Service "ping6" {
|
|
import "generic-service"
|
|
|
|
check_command = "ping6"
|
|
vars.sla = "24x7"
|
|
|
|
assign where "linux-servers" in host.groups
|
|
assign where "windows-servers" in host.groups
|
|
ignore where host.address6 == ""
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Each of these services has the custom attribute `sla` set to `24x7`. The
|
|
notification apply rule in `notifications.conf` will automatically apply
|
|
a service notification matching this attribute pattern.
|
|
|
|
apply Notification "mail-icingaadmin" to Service {
|
|
import "mail-service-notification"
|
|
|
|
user_groups = [ "icingaadmins" ]
|
|
|
|
assign where service.vars.sla == "24x7"
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Don't forget to install the [check plugins](#setting-up-check-plugins) required by the services and
|
|
their check commands.
|
|

|
|
The DB IDO (Database Icinga Data Output) modules for Icinga 2 take care of exporting
|
|
all configuration and status information into a database. The IDO database is used
|
|
by a number of projects including Icinga Web 1.x, Reporting or Icinga Web 2.
|
|
|
|
There is a separate module for each database back-end. At present support for
|
|
both MySQL and PostgreSQL is implemented.
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 uses the Icinga 1.x IDOUtils database schema. Icinga 2 requires additional
|
|
features not yet released with older Icinga 1.x versions.

|
|
> Please check the [what's new](#whats-new) section for the required schema version.
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**
|
|
>
|
|
> Only install the IDO feature if your web interface or reporting tool requires
|
|
> you to do so (for example, [Icinga Web](#setting-up-icinga-web) or [Icinga Web 2](#setting-up-icingaweb2)).
|
|
> [Icinga Classic UI](#setting-up-icinga-classic-ui) does not use IDO as backend.

|
### <a id="installing-database"></a> Installing the Database Server
|
|
|
|
In order to use DB IDO you need to setup either [MySQL](#installing-database-mysql-server)
|
|
or [PostgreSQL](#installing-database-postgresql-server) as supported database server.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> It's up to you whether you choose to install it on the same server where Icinga 2 is running on,
|
|
> or on a dedicated database host (or cluster).
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="installing-database-mysql-server"></a> Installing MySQL database server
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu:
|
|
|
|
# apt-get install mysql-server mysql-client
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS 5/6:
|
|
|
|
# yum install mysql-server mysql
|
|
# chkconfig mysqld on
|
|
# service mysqld start
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS 7 and Fedora 20 prefer MariaDB over MySQL:
|
|
|
|
# yum install mariadb-server mariadb
|
|
# systemctl enable mariadb.service
|
|
# systemctl start mariadb.service
|
|
|
|
SUSE:
|
|
|
|
# zypper install mysql mysql-client
|
|
# chkconfig mysqld on
|
|
# service mysqld start
|
|
|
|
RHEL based distributions do not automatically set a secure root password. Do that **now**:
|
|
|
|
# /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="installing-database-postgresql-server"></a> Installing PostgreSQL database server
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu:
|
|
|
|
# apt-get install postgresql
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS 5/6:
|
|
|
|
# yum install postgresql-server postgresql
|
|
# chkconfig postgresql on
|
|
# service postgresql start
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS 7 and Fedora 20 use [systemd](#systemd-service):
|
|
|
|
# yum install postgresql-server postgresql
|
|
# systemctl enable postgresql.service
|
|
# systemctl start postgresql.service
|
|
|
|

|
# service postgresql start
|
|
|
|
### <a id="configuring-db-ido-mysql"></a> Configuring DB IDO MySQL
|
|
|
|
First of all you have to install the `icinga2-ido-mysql` package using your
|
|
distribution's package manager.
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu:
|
|
|
|
# apt-get install icinga2-ido-mysql
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS:
|
|
|
|
# yum install icinga2-ido-mysql
|
|
|
|
SUSE:
|
|
|
|
# zypper install icinga2-ido-mysql
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Upstream Debian packages provide a database configuration wizard by default.
|
|
> You can skip the automated setup and install/upgrade the database manually
|
|
> if you prefer that.
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="setting-up-mysql-db"></a> Setting up the MySQL database
|
|
|
|
Set up a MySQL database for Icinga 2:
|
|
|
|
# mysql -u root -p
|
|
|
|
mysql> 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:
|
|
|
|
# mysql -u root -p icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-mysql/schema/mysql.sql
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="upgrading-mysql-db"></a> Upgrading the MySQL database
|
|
|
|
Check the `/usr/share/icinga2-ido-mysql/schema/upgrade` directory for an
|
|
incremental schema upgrade file.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> If there isn't an upgrade file for your current version available there's nothing to do.
|
|
|
|
Apply all database schema upgrade files incrementially.
|
|
|
|
# mysql -u root -p icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-mysql/schema/upgrade/<version>.sql
|
|
|
|
The Icinga 2 DB IDO module will check for the required database schema version on startup
|
|
and generate an error message if not satisfied.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Example:** You are upgrading Icinga 2 from version `2.0.2` to `2.1.0`. Look into
|
|
the *upgrade* directory:
|
|
|
|
$ ls /usr/share/icinga2-ido-mysql/schema/upgrade/
|
|
2.0.2.sql 2.1.0.sql
|
|
|
|
There is a new upgrade file called `2.1.0.sql` which must be applied to your IDO database.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="installing-ido-mysql"></a> Installing the IDO MySQL module
|
|
|
|
The package provides a new configuration file that is installed in
|
|
`/etc/icinga2/features-available/ido-mysql.conf`. You will need to update the
|
|
database credentials in this file.
|
|
|
|
You can enable the `ido-mysql` feature configuration file using `icinga2 feature enable`:
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature enable ido-mysql
|
|
Module 'ido-mysql' was enabled.
|
|
Make sure to restart Icinga 2 for these changes to take effect.
|
|
|
|
After enabling the ido-mysql feature you have to restart Icinga 2:
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu, RHEL/CentOS 6 and SUSE:
|
|
|
|
# service icinga2 restart
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS 7 and Fedora 20:
|
|
|
|
# systemctl restart icinga2.service
|
|
|
|
### <a id="configuring-db-ido-postgresql"></a> Configuring DB IDO PostgreSQL
|
|
|
|
First of all you have to install the `icinga2-ido-pgsql` package using your
|
|
distribution's package manager.
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu:
|
|
|
|
# apt-get install icinga2-ido-pgsql
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS:
|
|
|
|
# yum install icinga2-ido-pgsql
|
|
|
|
SUSE:
|
|
|
|
# zypper install icinga2-ido-pgsql
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Upstream Debian packages provide a database configuration wizard by default.
|
|
> You can skip the automated setup and install/upgrade the database manually
|
|
> if you prefer that.
|
|
|
|
#### 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
|
|
# sudo -u postgres createlang plpgsql icinga
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Using PostgreSQL 9.x you can omit the `createlang` command.
|
|
|
|
Locate your pg_hba.conf (Debian: `/etc/postgresql/*/main/pg_hba.conf`,
|
|
RHEL/SUSE: `/var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf`), add the icinga user with md5
|
|
authentication method and restart the postgresql server.
|
|
|
|
# vim /var/lib/pgsql/data/pg_hba.conf
|
|
|
|
# icinga
|
|
local icinga icinga md5
|
|
host icinga icinga 127.0.0.1/32 md5
|
|
host icinga icinga ::1/128 md5
|
|
|
|
# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
|
|
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
|
|
|
|
# /etc/init.d/postgresql restart
|
|
|
|
|
|
After creating the database and permissions you can import the Icinga 2 IDO schema
|
|
using the following command:
|
|
|
|
# export PGPASSWORD=icinga
|
|
# psql -U icinga -d icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-pgsql/schema/pgsql.sql
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="upgrading-postgresql-db"></a> Upgrading the PostgreSQL database
|
|
|
|
Check the `/usr/share/icinga2-ido-pgsql/schema/upgrade` directory for an
|
|
incremental schema upgrade file.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> If there isn't an upgrade file for your current version available there's nothing to do.
|
|
|
|
Apply all database schema upgrade files incrementially.
|
|
|
|
# export PGPASSWORD=icinga
|
|
# psql -U icinga -d icinga < /usr/share/icinga2-ido-pgsql/schema/upgrade/<version>.sql
|
|
|
|
The Icinga 2 DB IDO module will check for the required database schema version on startup
|
|
and generate an error message if not satisfied.
|
|
|
|
**Example:** You are upgrading Icinga 2 from version `2.0.2` to `2.1.0`. Look into
|
|
the *upgrade* directory:
|
|
|
|
$ ls /usr/share/icinga2-ido-pgsql/schema/upgrade/
|
|
2.0.2.sql 2.1.0.sql
|
|
|
|
There is a new upgrade file called `2.1.0.sql` which must be applied to your IDO database.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="installing-ido-postgresql"></a> Installing the IDO PostgreSQL module
|
|
|
|
The package provides a new configuration file that is installed in
|
|
`/etc/icinga2/features-available/ido-pgsql.conf`. You will need to update the
|
|
database credentials in this file.
|
|
|
|
You can enable the `ido-pgsql` feature configuration file using `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.
|
|
|
|
After enabling the ido-pgsql feature you have to restart Icinga 2:
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu, RHEL/CentOS 6 and SUSE:
|
|
|
|
# service icinga2 restart
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS 7 and Fedora 20:
|
|
|
|
# systemctl restart icinga2.service
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="setting-up-external-command-pipe"></a> Setting Up External Command Pipe
|
|
|
|
Web interfaces and other Icinga addons are able to send commands to
|
|
Icinga 2 through the external command pipe.
|
|
|
|
You can enable the External Command Pipe using icinga2 feature enable:
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature enable command
|
|
|
|
After that you will have to restart Icinga 2:
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu, RHEL/CentOS 6 and SUSE:
|
|
|
|
# service icinga2 restart
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS 7 and Fedora 20:
|
|
|
|
# systemctl restart icinga2.service
|
|
|
|
By default the command pipe file is owned by the group `icingacmd` with read/write
|
|
permissions. Add your webserver's user to the group `icingacmd` to
|
|
enable sending commands to Icinga 2 through your web interface:
|
|
|
|
# usermod -G -a icingacmd www-data
|
|
|
|
Debian packages use `nagios` as the default user and group name. Therefore change `icingacmd` to
|
|
`nagios`.
|
|
The webserver's user is different between distributions so you might have to change `www-data` to
|
|
`wwwrun`, `www`, or `apache`.
|
|
|
|
Change "www-data" to the user you're using to run queries.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Packages will do that automatically. Verify that by running `id <your-webserver-user>` and skip this
|
|
> step.
|
|
|
|
## <a id="setting-up-livestatus"></a> Setting up Livestatus
|
|
|
|
The [MK Livestatus](http://mathias-kettner.de/checkmk_livestatus.html) project
|
|
implements a query protocol that lets users query their Icinga instance for
|
|
status information. It can also be used to send commands.
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**
|
|
>
|
|
> Only install the Livestatus feature if your web interface or addon requires
|
|
> you to do so (for example, [Icinga Web 2](#setting-up-icingaweb2)).
|
|
> [Icinga Classic UI](#setting-up-icinga-classic-ui) and [Icinga Web](#setting-up-icinga-web)
|
|
> do not use Livestatus as backend.
|
|
|
|
The Livestatus component that is distributed as part of Icinga 2 is a
|
|
re-implementation of the Livestatus protocol which is compatible with MK
|
|
Livestatus.
|
|
|
|
Details on the available tables and attributes with Icinga 2 can be found
|
|
in the [Livestatus Schema](#schema-livestatus) section.
|
|
|
|
You can enable Livestatus using icinga2 feature enable:
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature enable livestatus
|
|
|
|
After that you will have to restart Icinga 2:
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu, RHEL/CentOS 6 and SUSE:
|
|
|
|
# service icinga2 restart
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS 7 and Fedora 20:
|
|
|
|
# systemctl restart icinga2.service
|
|
|
|
By default the Livestatus socket is available in `/var/run/icinga2/cmd/livestatus`.
|
|
|
|
In order for queries and commands to work you will need to add your query user
|
|
(e.g. your web server) to the `icingacmd` group:
|
|
|
|
# usermod -a -G icingacmd www-data
|
|
|
|
The Debian packages use `nagios` as the user and group name. Make sure to change `icingacmd` to
|
|
`nagios` if you're using Debian.
|
|
|
|
Change "www-data" to the user you're using to run queries.
|
|
|
|
In order to use the historical tables provided by the livestatus feature (for example, the
|
|
`log` table) you need to have the `CompatLogger` feature enabled. By default these logs
|
|
are expected to be in `/var/log/icinga2/compat`. A different path can be set using the
|
|
`compat_log_path` configuration attribute.
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature enable compatlog
|
|
|
|
## <a id="setting-up-icinga2-user-interfaces"></a> Setting up Icinga 2 User Interfaces
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 is compatible with Icinga 1.x user interfaces by providing additional
|
|
features required as backends.
|
|
|
|
Furthermore these interfaces can be used for the newly created `Icinga Web 2`
|
|
user interface.
|
|
|
|
Some interface features will only work in a limited manner due to
|
|
[compatibility reasons](#differences-1x-2), other features like the
|
|
statusmap parents are available by dumping the host dependencies as parents.
|
|
Special restrictions are noted specifically in the sections below.
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**
|
|
>
|
|
> Choose your preferred interface. There's no need to install [Classic UI](#setting-up-icinga-classic-ui)
|
|
> if you prefer [Icinga Web](#setting-up-icinga-web) or [Icinga Web 2](#setting-up-icingaweb2) for example.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="icinga2-user-interface-requirements"></a> Requirements
|
|
|
|
* Web server (Apache2/Httpd, Nginx, Lighttp, etc)
|
|
* User credentials
|
|
* Firewall ports (tcp/80)
|
|
|
|
The Debian, RHEL and SUSE packages for Icinga [Classic UI](#setting-up-icinga-classic-ui),
|
|
[Web](#setting-up-icinga-web) and [Icingaweb 2](#setting-up-icingaweb2) depend on Apache2
|
|
as web server.
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="icinga2-user-interface-webserver"></a> Webserver
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu packages will automatically fetch and install the required packages.
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS/Fedora:
|
|
|
|
# yum install httpd
|
|
# chkconfig httpd on && service httpd start
|
|
## RHEL7
|
|
# systemctl enable httpd && systemctl start httpd

|
|
### <a id="setting-up-icinga-classic-ui"></a> Setting up Icinga Classic UI
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 can write `status.dat` and `objects.cache` files in the format that
|
|
is supported by the Icinga 1.x Classic UI. [External commands](#external-commands)
|
|
(a.k.a. the "command pipe") are also supported. It also supports writing Icinga 1.x
|
|
log files which are required for the reporting functionality in the Classic UI.
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="installing-icinga-classic-ui"></a> Installing Icinga Classic UI
|
|
|
|
The Icinga package repository has both Debian and RPM packages. You can install
|
|
the Classic UI using the following packages:
|
|
|
|
Distribution | Packages
|
|
--------------|---------------------
|
|
Debian | icinga2-classicui
|
|
RHEL/SUSE | icinga2-classicui-config icinga-gui
|
|
|
|
The Debian packages require additional packages which are provided by the
|
|
[Debian Monitoring Project](http://www.debmon.org) (`DebMon`) repository.
|
|
|
|
`libjs-jquery-ui` requires at least version `1.10.*` which is not available
|
|
in Debian 7 (Wheezy) and Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise). Add the following repositories
|
|
to satisfy this dependency:
|
|
|
|
Distribution | Package Repositories
|
|
------------------------------|------------------------------
|
|
Debian Wheezy | [wheezy-backports](http://backports.debian.org/Instructions/) or [DebMon](http://www.debmon.org)
|
|
Ubuntu 12.04 LTS (Precise) | [Icinga PPA](https://launchpad.net/~formorer/+archive/icinga)
|
|
|
|
On all distributions other than Debian you may have to restart both your web
|
|
server as well as Icinga 2 after installing the Classic UI package.
|
|
|
|
Icinga Classic UI requires the [StatusDataWriter](#status-data), [CompatLogger](#compat-logging)
|
|
and [ExternalCommandListener](#external-commands) features.
|
|
Enable these features and restart Icinga 2.
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature enable statusdata compatlog command
|
|
|
|
In order for commands to work you will need to [setup the external command pipe](#setting-up-external-command-pipe).
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="setting-up-icinga-classic-ui-summary"></a> Setting Up Icinga Classic UI Summary
|
|
|
|
Verify that your Icinga 1.x Classic UI works by browsing to your Classic
|
|
UI installation URL:
|
|
|
|
Distribution | URL | Default Login
|
|
--------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------
|
|
Debian | [http://localhost/icinga2-classicui](http://localhost/icinga2-classicui) | asked during installation
|
|
all others | [http://localhost/icinga](http://localhost/icinga) | icingaadmin/icingaadmin
|
|
|
|
For further information on configuration, troubleshooting and interface documentation
|
|
please check the official [Icinga 1.x user interface documentation](http://docs.icinga.org/latest/en/ch06.html).
|
|
|
|
### <a id="setting-up-icinga-web"></a> Setting up Icinga Web
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 can write to the same schema supplied by `Icinga IDOUtils 1.x` which
|
|
is an explicit requirement to run `Icinga Web` next to the external command pipe.
|
|
Therefore you need to setup the [DB IDO feature](#configuring-ido) remarked in the previous sections.
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="installing-icinga-web"></a> Installing Icinga Web
|
|
|
|
The Icinga package repository has both Debian and RPM packages. You can install
|
|
Icinga Web using the following packages (RPMs ship an additional configuration package):
|
|
|
|
Distribution | Packages
|
|
--------------|-------------------------------------------------------
|
|
RHEL/SUSE | icinga-web icinga-web-{mysql,pgsql}
|
|
Debian | icinga-web icinga-web-config-icinga2-ido-{mysql,pgsql}
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="icinga-web-rpm-notes"></a> Icinga Web on RPM based systems
|
|
|
|
Additionally you need to setup the `icinga_web` database and import the database schema.
|
|
Details can be found in the package `README` files, for example [README.RHEL](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga-web/blob/master/doc/README.RHEL)
|
|
|
|
The Icinga Web RPM packages install the schema files into
|
|
`/usr/share/doc/icinga-web-*/schema` (`*` means package version).
|
|
The Icinga Web dist tarball ships the schema files in `etc/schema`.
|
|
|
|
On SuSE-based distributions the schema files are installed in
|
|
`/usr/share/doc/packages/icinga-web/schema`.
|
|
|
|
Example for RHEL and MySQL:
|
|
|
|
# mysql -u root -p
|
|
|
|
mysql> CREATE DATABASE icinga_web;
|
|
GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, DROP, CREATE VIEW, INDEX, EXECUTE ON icinga_web.* TO 'icinga_web'@'localhost' IDENTIFIED BY 'icinga_web';
|
|
quit
|
|
|
|
# mysql -u root -p icinga_web < /usr/share/doc/icinga-web-<version>/schema/mysql.sql
|
|
|
|
Icinga Web requires the IDO feature as database backend using MySQL or PostgreSQL.
|
|
Enable that feature, e.g. for MySQL.
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature enable ido-mysql
|
|
|
|
If you've changed your default credentials you may either create a read-only user
|
|
or use the credentials defined in the IDO feature for Icinga Web backend configuration.
|
|
Edit `databases.xml` accordingly and clear the cache afterwards. Further details can be
|
|
found in the [Icinga Web documentation](http://docs.icinga.org/latest/en/icinga-web-config.html).
|
|
|
|
# vim /etc/icinga-web/conf.d/databases.xml
|
|
|
|
# icinga-web-clearcache
|
|
|
|
Additionally you need to enable the `command` feature for sending [external commands](#external-commands):
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature enable command
|
|
|
|
In order for commands to work you will need to [setup the external command pipe](#setting-up-external-command-pipe).
|
|
|
|
Then edit the Icinga Web configuration for sending commands in `/etc/icinga-web/conf.d/access.xml`
|
|
(RHEL) or `/etc/icinga-web/access.xml` (SUSE) setting the command pipe path
|
|
to the default used in Icinga 2. Make sure to clear the cache afterwards.
|
|
|
|
# vim /etc/icinga-web/conf.d/access.xml
|
|
|
|
<write>
|
|
<files>
|
|
<resource name="icinga_pipe">/var/run/icinga2/cmd/icinga2.cmd</resource>
|
|
</files>
|
|
</write>
|
|
|
|
# icinga-web-clearcache
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> The path to the Icinga Web `clearcache` script may differ. Please check the
|
|

|
#### <a id="icinga-web-debian-notes"></a> Icinga Web on Debian systems
|
|
|
|
Since Icinga Web `1.11.1-2` the IDO auto-configuration has been moved into
|
|
additional packages on Debian and Ubuntu.
|
|
|
|
The package `icinga-web` no longer configures the IDO connection. You must now
|
|
use one of the config packages:
|
|
|
|
- `icinga-web-config-icinga2-ido-mysql`
|
|
- `icinga-web-config-icinga2-ido-pgsql`
|
|
|
|
These packages take care of setting up the [DB IDO](#configuring-db-ido) configuration,
|
|
enabling the external command pipe for Icinga Web and depend on
|
|
the corresponding packages of Icinga 2.
|
|
|
|
Please read the `README.Debian` files for details and advanced configuration:
|
|
|
|
- `/usr/share/doc/icinga-web/README.Debian`
|
|
- `/usr/share/doc/icinga-web-config-icinga2-ido-mysql/README.Debian`
|
|
- `/usr/share/doc/icinga-web-config-icinga2-ido-pgsql/README.Debian`
|
|
|
|
When changing Icinga Web configuration files make sure to clear the config cache:
|
|
|
|
# /usr/lib/icinga-web/bin/clearcache.sh
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> If you are using an older version of Icinga Web, install it like this and adapt
|
|
> the configuration manually as shown in [the RPM notes](#icinga-web-rpm-notes):
|
|
>
|
|
> `apt-get install --no-install-recommends icinga-web`
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="setting-up-icinga-web-summary"></a> Setting Up Icinga Web Summary
|
|
|
|
Verify that your Icinga 1.x Web works by browsing to your Web installation URL:
|
|
|
|
Distribution | URL | Default Login
|
|
--------------|-------------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------
|
|
Debian | [http://localhost/icinga-web](http://localhost/icinga-web) | asked during installation
|
|
all others | [http://localhost/icinga-web](http://localhost/icinga-web) | root/password
|
|
|
|
For further information on configuration, troubleshooting and interface documentation
|
|
please check the official [Icinga 1.x user interface documentation](http://docs.icinga.org/latest/en/ch06.html).
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="setting-up-icingaweb2"></a> Setting up Icinga Web 2
|
|
|
|
Icinga Web 2 will support `DB IDO` or `Livestatus` as backends.
|
|
|
|
Using DB IDO as backend, you need to install and configure the [DB IDO backend](#configuring-db-ido).
|
|
Once finished, you can enable the feature for DB IDO MySQL:
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature enable ido-mysql
|
|
|
|
Furthermore [external commands](#external-commands) are supported through the external
|
|
command pipe.
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature enable command
|
|
|
|
In order for commands to work you will need to [setup the external command pipe](#setting-up-external-command-pipe).
|
|
|
|
Please consult the INSTALL documentation shipped with `Icinga Web 2` for
|
|
further instructions on how to install Icinga Web 2 and to configure
|
|
backends, resources and instances.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Icinga Web 2 is still under heavy development. Rather than installing it
|
|
> yourself you should consider testing it using the available
|
|
> [Vagrant demo VM](https://github.com/icinga/icinga-vagrant).
|
|
|
|
Check the [Icinga website](https://www.icinga.org) for release schedules,
|
|
blog updates and more.
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="additional-visualization"></a> Additional visualization
|
|
|
|
There are many visualization addons which can be used with Icinga 2.
|
|
|
|
Some of the more popular ones are [PNP](#addons-graphing-pnp), [inGraph](#addons-graphing-pnp)
|
|
(graphing performance data), [Graphite](#addons-graphing-pnp), and
|
|
[NagVis](#addons-visualization-nagvis) (network maps).
|
|
|
|
|
|
## <a id="configuration-tools"></a> Configuration Tools
|
|
|
|
If you require your favourite configuration tool to export Icinga 2 configuration, please get in
|
|
touch with their developers. The Icinga project does not provide a configuration web interface
|
|
or similar.
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**
|
|
>
|
|
> Get to know the new configuration format and the advanced [apply](#using-apply) rules and
|
|
> use [syntax highlighting](#configuration-syntax-highlighting) in vim/nano.
|
|
|
|
If you're looking for puppet manifests, chef cookbooks, ansible recipes, etc - we're happy
|
|
to integrate them upstream, so please get in touch at [https://support.icinga.org](https://support.icinga.org).
|
|
|
|
These tools are in development and require feedback and tests:
|
|
|
|
* [Ansible Roles](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga2-ansible)
|
|
* [Puppet Module](https://github.com/Icinga/puppet-icinga2)
|
|
|
|
## <a id="configuration-syntax-highlighting"></a> Configuration Syntax Highlighting
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 ships configuration examples for syntax highlighting using the `vim` and `nano` editors.
|
|
The RHEL, SUSE and Debian package `icinga2-common` install these files into
|
|
`/usr/share/*/icinga2-common/syntax`. Sources provide these files in `tools/syntax`.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="configuration-syntax-highlighting-vim"></a> Configuration Syntax Highlighting using Vim
|
|
|
|
Create a new local vim configuration storage, if not already existing.
|
|
Edit `vim/ftdetect/icinga2.vim` if your paths to the Icinga 2 configuration
|
|
differ.
|
|
|
|
$ PREFIX=~/.vim
|
|
$ mkdir -p $PREFIX/{syntax,ftdetect}
|
|
$ cp vim/syntax/icinga2.vim $PREFIX/syntax/
|
|
$ cp vim/ftdetect/icinga2.vim $PREFIX/ftdetect/
|
|
|
|
Test it:
|
|
|
|
$ vim /etc/icinga2/conf.d/templates.conf
|
|
|
|
### <a id="configuration-syntax-highlighting-nano"></a> Configuration Syntax Highlighting using Nano
|
|
|
|
Copy the `/etc/nanorc` sample file to your home directory. Create the `/etc/nano` directory
|
|
and copy the provided `icinga2.nanorc` into it.
|
|
|
|
$ cp /etc/nanorc ~/.nanorc
|
|
|
|
# mkdir -p /etc/nano
|
|
# cp icinga2.nanorc /etc/nano/
|
|
|
|
Then include the icinga2.nanorc file in your ~/.nanorc by adding the following line:
|
|
|
|
$ vim ~/.nanorc
|
|
|
|
## Icinga 2
|
|
include "/etc/nano/icinga2.nanorc"
|
|
|
|
Test it:
|
|
|
|
$ nano /etc/icinga2/conf.d/templates.conf
|
|
|
|
|
|
## <a id="running-icinga2"></a> Running Icinga 2
|
|
|
|
### <a id="init-script"></a> Init Script
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2's init script is installed in `/etc/init.d/icinga2` by default:
|
|
|
|
# /etc/init.d/icinga2
|
|
Usage: /etc/init.d/icinga2 {start|stop|restart|reload|checkconfig|status}
|
|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
### <a id="systemd-service"></a> Systemd Service
|
|
|
|
Modern distributions (Fedora, OpenSUSE, etc.) already use `Systemd` natively. Enterprise-grade
|
|
distributions such as RHEL7 changed to `Systemd` recently. Icinga 2 Packages will install the
|
|
service automatically.
|
|
|
|
The Icinga 2 `Systemd` service can be (re)started, reloaded, stopped and also queried for its current status.
|
|
|
|

### <a id="cli-commands"></a> Icinga 2 CLI Commands
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 ships its own integrated cli commands supporting bash-autocompletion.
|
|
|
|
These cli commands will allow you to use certain functionality
|
|
provided by and around the Icinga 2 daemon.
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|

|
#### <a id="cli-commands-autocompletion"></a> Icinga 2 CLI Bash Autocompletion
|
|
|
|
Bash Auto-Completion (pressing `<TAB>`) is provided only for the corresponding context.
|
|
|
|
While `--config` will suggest and auto-complete files and directories on disk,
|
|
`feature enable` will only suggest disabled features. `repository` will know
|
|
about object specific attributes, and so on. Try it yourself.
|
|
|
|
RPM and Debian packages install the bash completion files into
|
|
`/etc/bash_completion.d/icinga2`.
|
|
|
|
You will need to install the `bash-completion` package if not already installed.
|
|
|
|
RHEL/CentOS/Fedora:
|
|
# yum install bash-completion
|
|
|
|
SUSE:
|
|
# zypper install bash-completion
|
|
|
|
Debian/Ubuntu:
|
|
# apt-get install bash-completion
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="cli-commands-global-options"></a> Icinga 2 CLI Global Options
|
|
|
|
##### Libraries
|
|
|
|
Instead of loading libraries using the [`library` config directive](#library)
|
|
you can also use the `--library` command-line option.
|
|
|
|
##### Constants
|
|
|
|
[Global constants](#global-constants) can be set using the `--define` command-line option.
|
|
|
|
##### Config Include Path
|
|
|
|
When including files you can specify that the include search path should be
|
|
checked. You can do this by putting your configuration file name in angle
|
|
brackets like this:
|
|
|
|
include <test.conf>
|
|
|
|
This would cause Icinga 2 to search its include path for the configuration file
|
|
`test.conf`. By default the installation path for the Icinga Template Library
|
|
is the only search directory.
|
|
|
|
Using the `--include` command-line option additional search directories can be
|
|
added.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="cli-command-daemon"></a> Cli command: Daemon
|
|
|
|
The cli command `daemon` provides the functionality to start/stop Icinga 2.
|
|
Furthermore it provides the [configuration validation](#config-validation).

|
|
|
|
##### Config Files
|
|
|
|
Using the `--config` option you can specify one or more configuration files.
|
|
Config files are processed in the order they're specified on the command-line.
|
|
|
|
When no configuration file is specified and the `--no-config` is not used
|
|
Icinga 2 automatically falls back to using the configuration file
|
|
`SysconfDir + "/icinga2/icinga2.conf"` (where SysconfDir is usually `/etc`).
|
|
|
|
##### Config Validation
|
|
|
|
The `--validate` option can be used to check if your configuration files
|
|
contain errors. If any errors are found the exit status is 1, otherwise 0
|
|
is returned. More details in the [configuration validation](#config-validation) chapter.
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### <a id="cli-command-feature"></a> Cli command: Feature
|
|
|
|
The cli commands for `enable` and `disable` feature support bash auto-completion
|

### <a id="features"></a> Enabling/Disabling Features
|
|
|
|
Icinga 2 provides configuration files for some commonly used features. These
|
|
are installed in the `/etc/icinga2/features-available` directory and can be
|
|
enabled and disabled using the `icinga2 feature enable` and `icinga2 feature disable`
|
|
[cli commands](#cli-command-feature), respectively.
|
|
|
|
The `icinga2 feature enable` cli command creates symlinks in the
|
|
`/etc/icinga2/features-enabled` directory which is included by default
|
|
in the example configuration file.
|
|
|
|
You can view a list of enabled and disabled features:
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature list
|
|
Disabled features: api command compatlog debuglog graphite icingastatus ido-mysql ido-pgsql livestatus notification perfdata statusdata syslog
|
|
Enabled features: checker mainlog notification
|
|
|
|
Using the `icinga2 feature enable` command you can enable features:
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature enable graphite
|
|
Enabling feature graphite. Make sure to restart Icinga 2 for these changes to take effect.
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can disable features using the `icinga2 feature disable` command:
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 feature disable ido-mysql livestatus
|
|
Disabling feature ido-mysql. Make sure to restart Icinga 2 for these changes to take effect.
|
|
Disabling feature livestatus. Make sure to restart Icinga 2 for these changes to take effect.
|
|
|
|
|
|
The `icinga2 feature enable` and `icinga2 feature disable` commands do not
|
|
restart Icinga 2. You will need to restart Icinga 2 using the init script
|
|
after enabling or disabling features.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
### <a id="config-validation"></a> Configuration Validation
|
|
|
|
Once you've edited the configuration files make sure to tell Icinga 2 to validate
|
|
the configuration changes. Icinga 2 will log any configuration error including
|
|
a hint on the file, the line number and the affected configuration line itself.
|
|
|
|
The following example creates an apply rule without any `assign` condition.
|
|
|
|
apply Service "5872-ping4" {
|
|
import "generic-service"
|
|
check_command = "ping4"
|
|
//assign where match("5872-*", host.name)
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
Validate the configuration with the init script option `checkconfig`:
|
|
|
|
# /etc/init.d/icinga2 checkconfig
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Using [Systemd](#systemd-service) you need to manually validate the configuration using
|
|
> the cli command below.
|
|
|
|
Or manually passing the `-C` argument:
|
|
|
|
# /usr/sbin/icinga2 daemon -c /etc/icinga2/icinga2.conf -C
|
|
|
|
[2014-05-22 17:07:25 +0200] critical/ConfigItem: Location:
|
|
/etc/icinga2/conf.d/tests/5872.conf(5): }
|
|
/etc/icinga2/conf.d/tests/5872.conf(6):
|
|
/etc/icinga2/conf.d/tests/5872.conf(7): apply Service "5872-ping4" {
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
/etc/icinga2/conf.d/tests/5872.conf(8): import "test-generic-service"
|
|
/etc/icinga2/conf.d/tests/5872.conf(9): check_command = "ping4"
|
|
|
|
Config error: 'apply' is missing 'assign'
|
|
[2014-05-22 17:07:25 +0200] critical/ConfigItem: 1 errors, 0 warnings.
|
|
Icinga 2 detected configuration errors.
|
|
|
|
> **Tip**
|
|
>
|
|
> Icinga 2 will automatically detect the default path for `icinga2.conf`
|
|
> in `SysconfDir + /icinga2/icinga2.conf` and you can safely omit this parameter.
|
|
>
|
|
> `# icinga2 daemon -C`
|
|
|
|
If you encouter errors during configuration validation, please make sure
|
|
to read the [troubleshooting](#troubleshooting) chapter.
|
|
|
|
You can also use the [cli command](#cli-command-object) `icinga2 object list`
|
|
after validation passes to analyze object attributes, inheritance or created
|
|
objects by apply rules.
|
|
Find more on troubleshooting with `object list` in [this chapter](#list-configuration-objects).
|
|
|
|
Example filtered by `Service` objects with the name `ping*`:
|
|
|
|
# icinga2 object list --type Service --name *ping*
|
|
Object 'nbmif.int.netways.de!ping4' of type 'Service':
|
|
* __name = 'nbmif.int.netways.de!ping4'

### <a id="config-change-reload"></a> Reload on Configuration Changes
|
|
|
|
Everytime you have changed your configuration you should first tell Icinga 2
|
|
to [validate](#config-validation). If there are no validation errors you can
|
|
safely reload the Icinga 2 daemon.
|
|
|
|
# /etc/init.d/icinga2 reload
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> The `reload` action will send the `SIGHUP` signal to the Icinga 2 daemon
|
|
> which will validate the configuration in a separate process and not stop
|
|
> the other events like check execution, notifications, etc.
|
|
>
|
|
> Details can be found [here](#differences-1x-2-real-reload).

## <a id="vagrant"></a> Vagrant Demo VM
|
|
|
|
The Icinga Vagrant Git repository contains support for [Vagrant](http://docs.vagrantup.com/v2/)
|
|
with VirtualBox. Please note that Vagrant version `1.0.x` is not supported. At least
|
|
version `1.2.x` is required.
|
|
|
|
In order to build the Vagrant VM first you will have to check out
|
|
the Git repository:
|
|
|
|
$ git clone git://git.icinga.org/icinga-vagrant.git
|
|
|
|
For Icinga 2 there are currently two scenarios available:
|
|
|
|
* `icinga2x` bringing up a standalone box with Icinga 2
|
|
* `icinga2x-cluster` setting up two virtual machines in a master/slave cluster
|
|
|
|
> **Note**
|
|
>
|
|
> Please consult the `README.md` file for each project for further installation
|
|
> details at [https://github.com/Icinga/icinga-vagrant]
|
|
|
|
Once you have checked out the Git repository navigate to your required
|
|
vagrant box and build the VM using the following command:
|
|
|
|
$ vagrant up
|
|
|
|
The Vagrant VMs are based on CentOS 6.x and are using the official
|
|
Icinga 2 RPM snapshot packages from `packages.icinga.org`. The check
|
|
plugins are installed from EPEL providing RPMs with sources from the
|
|
Monitoring Plugins project.
