Here's a hint for *any* Icinga2 system as soon as you start using the Master - Satellite - Client hierarchy: - rename /etc/icinga2/conf.d to something like /etc/icinga2/conf.d.dist (it doesn't really matter what, just change its name) - create a new, empty /etc/icinga2/conf.d and leave it empty - do this on *every* machine in your network (Master, Satellite/s, Client/s - all of them) Then create one directory per Zone name under /etc/icinga2/zones.d and put all the configuration files (such as the Host definitions) which are specific to that Zone in there - you can name the files anything you like so long as they end in .conf Second hint - make sure all machines in your network have an entry in /etc/icinga2/zones.conf: object Zone "global-templates" { global = true } - then put any Service and ServiceCheck definitions (not Hosts) which apply to more than one Zone into files under /etc/icinga2/zones.d/global-templates (again, you can name these anything you like so long as they end in .conf) *That* is the way Icinga distributes top-down configurations to the Satellites and Clients. Hope that helps, Antony. -- Users don't know what they want until they see what they get.
