Sorry - I could have checked for myself before asking this. https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=icinga confirms you can still get Icinga1 for Debian Stretch. I think you should definitely upgrade to https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=icinga2 as you won't get much support into the future for Icinga1 any more. Note that the configuration files have changed quite a bit between Icinga1 (which was essentially Nagios-compatible) and Icinga2, so the upgrade will require some effort and adjustment - something i would only recommend by setting up a development / staging server to perform the upgrade on, while your production server continues running Icinga1 and providing your monitoring function. https://www.icinga.com/docs/icinga2/latest/doc/23-migrating-from-icinga-1x/ can help with the migration process. > > or similar I'd willingly settle for that, but I've searched extensively > > for a quick answer and come up with nothing.
