Hi, I'm doing a test spin for migrating my montoring environment to Icinga2. In general, things are really smooth but unfortunately I ran into a problem with host state checks. A lot of digging in the mailing list archive and googling hints that I'm not the first one walk this path. Still I have no solution for the problem
My setup consists of a master (monitor1) and a few clients (client1, client2) that are not directly accessible from the master. Thus, the "hostalive" check cannot be used on monitor1 to verify if client[12] is alive. Instead I want to use the cluster transport as a way to detect host state. Therefore I change check_command for the hosts client[12] to "cluster-zone" which doesn't work. I assume this is because the host state check_command is run on each host, not on monitor1. Thus, when the cluster-zone check fails on either client, it is actually detected but it is not communicated to monitor1 and the client host state remains UP. Is it possible to somehow force the check_command for client[12] to be run on monitor1 (I guess not)? If not, can one use a seperate service check using cluster-zone check command and use the outcome to set the client[12] host states independently of the real host state check commands? Running icinga2 r2.4.0-1 on all machines. Communication between master and clients are working fine. Configuration is pushed from monitor1 to the clients. zones.conf as below: object Endpoint "monitor1.xyz.com" { host = "monitor1.xyz.com" } object Zone "master" { endpoints = [ "monitor1.xyz.com" ] } object Zone "global-templates" { global = true } object Endpoint "client1.xyz.com" { host = "client1.xyz.com" } object Zone "client1.xyz.com" { endpoints = [ "client1.xyz.com" ] parent = "master" } object Endpoint "client2.xyz.com" { host = "client2.xyz.com" } object Zone "client2.xyz.com" { endpoints = [ "client2.xyz.com" ] parent = "master" } The zones.d/ structure is: ./global-templates/ ./global-templates/templates.conf ./client1.xyz.com/ ./client1.xyz.com/host.conf ./client2.xyz.com/ ./client2.xyz.com/host.conf ./master/ global-templates/templates.conf: template Host "xyz-host" { import "generic-host" vars.os = "Linux" max_check_attempts = 3 check_interval = 1m retry_interval = 30s check_command = "cluster-zone" vars.cluster_zone = "master" } client[12].xyz.com/host.conf: object Host "clientX.xyz.com" { import "xyz-host" } Best regards, PH -- Per-Henrik Lundblom email: p...@whatever.nu phone: +46 707 647050 webpage: www.whatever.nu _______________________________________________ icinga-users mailing list icinga-users@lists.icinga.org https://lists.icinga.org/mailman/listinfo/icinga-users
