Installation
These are the instructions for manual Director installations. You can learn moree about how to automate this in the automation section of this documentation.
Requirements
- Icinga 2 (>= 2.4.3)
- Icinga Web 2 (>= 2.2.0)
- A database, MySQL (>= 5.1) or PostgreSQL (>= 9.1) database (MariaDB and other forks are also fine)
- php5-curl
Database
Create an empty Icinga Director database
MySQL
mysql -e "CREATE DATABASE director CHARACTER SET 'utf8';
GRANT ALL ON director.* TO director@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'some-password';"
PostgreSQL
psql -q -c "CREATE DATABASE director WITH ENCODING 'UTF8';"
psql director -q -c "CREATE USER director WITH PASSWORD 'some-password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE director TO director;"
Configure Icinga Web 2
In your web frontend please go to System / Configuration / Resources and create
a new database resource pointing to your newly created database. Please make
sure that you choose utf8
as an encoding.
As with any Icinga Web 2 module, installation is pretty straight-forward. In
case you're installing it from source all you have to do is to drop the director
module in one of your module paths. You can examine (and set) the module path(s)
in Configuration / General
. In a typical environment you'll probably drop the
module to /usr/share/icingaweb2/modules/director
. Please note that the directory
name MUST be director
and not icingaweb2-module-director
or anything else.
Now go to your web frontend, Configuration, Modules, director - and enable the module. Choose either Director directly from the menu or got to the Configuration tab. Either way you'll reach the kickstart wizards. Follow the instructions and you're all done!
