Hi Jay,

I did not ask you to install Icinga Web 2 in production but rather what’s the 
reason for not using Icinga Web 2 as a mobile client (only). Sorry for the 
confusion.

You've asked for a client for “keeping an eye on things when stepping away from 
desk”. With Icinga Web 2 you do not have to zoom in an out to control the 
application because Icinga Web 2 adapts to your screen’s resolution. That’s why 
I said it seems that Icinga Web 2 has the features you require.
If you’ve already tested Icinga Web 2 with a mobile client and didn’t find it 
useful please open an issue at dev.icinga.org<http://dev.icinga.org> or simply 
write me a mail.

Of course it’s lacking push notifications. But that’s interesting stuff and I 
will create an issue for that on our tracker.

Maybe you find icinga-mobile useful though it’s deprecated and requires 
Icinga-web 1.x.

Cheers,
Eric

Eric,
Icinga Web 2 is still being released as Beta - which is not production.
Yes, I have fired up an instance in a test lab and it looks promising - but I 
am not about to install it into a production environment. Surprised you had to 
even ask that.

I am curious about how you feel it has all the features I require, when I don't 
see a mobile client for it.

I am _not_ talking about using a browser; we could already just use any 
tablet's native browser to accomplish that with any of the Icinga web 
interfaces.
If I had to call out the most important feature or features that the monitoring 
team have asked for that they feel a mobile client is suited for, the first 
would be some form of audible notification. I am considering just using email 
notifications for that purpose but that varies from the feature requests. 
Secondary would just be that within an app instead of a browser, navigation 
would be expected to be somewhat better than zooming in to click on a 
particular spot and zooming out to see the resultant screen.

Cheers

Hi Jay,

Everything seems great, and though we may move to  the Icinga Web 2 interface 
at some point in the future, we are waiting for it to be a tad more matured.

Just for the records, what exactly makes you not using Icinga Web 2 at all? Did 
you already have a look at it? It has all the features you seem to require.

Cheers,
Eric
