Hi,
I like to simplify adding new hosts to my top-down config sync setup.
Currently, I need to add Endpoint & Zone entries for each host to my zones.conf
file by hand.
I found a config snippet that suggested to add a host template like this:
/etc/icinga2/zones.d/global-templates/generic-agent.conf
template Host "generic-agent" {
import "generic-host"
object Endpoint __name {
host = "$host.address$"
}
object Zone __name {
parent = "master"
endpoints = [ __name ]
}
}
A new host should then get only a host defition:
/etc/icinga2/zones.d/child/host.conf
object Host "child" {
import "generic-agent"
check_command = "hostalive"
address = ...
vars.os = "Linux"
zone = "master"
}
When I check this configuration changes, Icinga2 shows this error:
critical/config: Error: Error while evaluating expression: Objects may not be
created outside of an activation context.
Location: in /etc/icinga2/zones.d/global-templates/generic-agent.conf: 4:3-4:24
/etc/icinga2/zones.d/global-templates/generic-agent.conf(2): import
"generic-host"
/etc/icinga2/zones.d/global-templates/generic-agent.conf(3):
/etc/icinga2/zones.d/global-templates/generic-agent.conf(4): object Endpoint
__name {
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
/etc/icinga2/zones.d/global-templates/generic-agent.conf(5): host =
"$host.address$"
/etc/icinga2/zones.d/global-templates/generic-agent.conf(6): }
critical/config: 1 error
I'm not sure what this error message means and how I could fix this error to
achieve what I explained above.
Regards,
Volker
