Icinga Director

This is going to be the new Icinga 2 config tool. Not for productional use. YET.

Installation

Create Icinga Director database

MySQL:

mysql -e "CREATE DATABASE director;
   GRANT SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE ON director.* TO director@localhost
   IDENTIFIED BY 'some-password';"

mysql director < schema/mysql.sql

PostgreSQL:

CREATE DATABASE director WITH ENCODING 'UTF8';
CREATE USER director WITH PASSWORD 'some-password';
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON DATABASE director TO director;

psql director < schema/pgsql.sql

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. Last but not least you have to tell the director module to use this newly created database resource.

Given that you named your resource directordb the config.ini for the module could look as follows:

[db]
resource = directordb

This file is to be found in <ICINGAWEB_CONFIGDIR>/modules/director/, where ICINGAWEB_CONFIGDIR usually means /etc/icingaweb2.
