I got no responses on my email from yesterday.  So, I'm wondering if maybe I 
break the question down into smaller parts if that will help.
What I believe I'll need are:
1.) instructions for installing Icinga over Nagios.  Both the server and the 
monitored nodes, if anything, in fact needs to be done on the latter.
2.) relavant cookbooks, recipes, etc. for setting the Icinga install up to be 
managed from Chef server version 10.
I suspect that this will about cover it, but since, again, I'm very new to both 
Icinga/Nagios and Chef, I can't be sure.
Thanks,
-Anthony

Subject: Migrating from Nagios to Icinga
Date: Wed, 23 Jul 2014 11:32:31 -0700







Hi,
I am very new to Nagios, Icinga, and Chef, but have a collection of 
Chef-managed hosts that I would like to migrate from Nagios to Icinga.  I am 
somewhat lost as to where I should start.  I have found these pages:
https://www.icinga.org/nagios/upgrade-from-nagios/
https://wiki.icinga.org/display/howtos/Chef
But, details that I can apply to the specific setup that I'm working with 
appear to be lacking.  
Here's a bit more info. on what I'm looking at
1.) The instance of Chef that we have is running on our own hardware/VM:  it's 
version 10.18.2 of the server product and is running on an EC2, Ubuntu 12.04 VM.
2.) The version of Nagios that we're using is Nagios Core 3.2.3.  The server 
instance is running on the same EC2 VM as our Chef server.
3.) With regard to the managed hosts, three are running Ubuntu 12.04 and two 
are running Amazon Linux AMI (these I've had trouble with, in terms of getting 
things like nrpe to run properly).
I'm not sure what I'll need in order to get this done, but I would imagine it 
will include:
1.) links, other information... actual "apt-get install" steps for getting the 
required software in place.
2.) Appropriate Chef cookbooks for the new software, configuration files, etc.
If there's anyone, out there, who has gone through this process and can lend me 
a hand, I would really appreciate it.  I've been putting this work off for a 
while now, because I've felt so lost.
Thanks,
-Anthony
