debops.icinga

The Icinga project is a monitoring solution which can be used to monitor infrastructure hosts and services. Icinga can use variety of remote agents as well as SNMP to monitor remote hosts.

DebOps provides support for Icinga 2, split into several roles:

  • the debops.icinga role is the Icinga 2 Agent role, usually installed on all hosts in the cluster that should be monitored. Different instances can function as masters, satellites or clients depending on the configuration.

  • the debops.icinga_db role can be used to configure the database support for Icinga 2, used by the web interface. Both PostgreSQL and MariaDB databases are supported.

  • the debops.icinga_web role manages the Icinga 2 Web interface, including installation of external modules like Icinga 2 Director.
