Part 1 in the October edition, titled “Die Server stets im Blick” gives an overview of Icinga and SNMP monitoring, common plugins and a basic configuration.

Amanda Mailer posted this in Documentation, Webinterface on September 30th, 2011 | Icinga New Web was always designed with the larger organisation in mind. Often in such networks, Active Directory is used to manage the authentication and authorization of many users. So it makes sense to integrate the monitoring interface into this existing infrastructure. Luckily, it is very easy to set up Active Directory authentication in Icinga [...]
As of v1.3, Icinga has been capable of dual stack monitoring. Making good use of Icinga Wiki, Michael Friedrich offered his tips on the very simply integration of IPv6 alongside existing IPv4 addresses.
One way is by using two different macros to assign service definitions to the host eg. $HOSTADDRESS$, $HOSTADDRESS6$ and then creating separate [...]
Wolfgang posted this in Documentation on July 15th, 2011 | We have implemented DocBooks as our standard for Icinga’s documentation and were thinking of taking our documentation to man pages too, delivering it with the core. If you think our docs would come in handy for you at installation and in your day-to-day use, let us know in our poll below!

Systems administrator at Linagora, Charles is a monitoring expert in open source solutions. He is currently working on an Icinga environment which monitors a fleet of over 150 machines for [...]
The new Icinga Web is beloved for its easy to view and easy to customize Cronks. These nifty widgets can be easily customised to show exactly what the user needs, but also easily organised into neat categories.
With the release of v1.3, users could create these categories in a few simple clicks in the new [...]
Bernd Erk posted this in Development, Documentation on February 10th, 2011 | If you haven’t already noticed, we have recently launched a new Icinga Wiki.
Find it at https://wiki.icinga.org or under ‘Docs’ of the yellow menu bar at the top of the website.
Powered by Altassian Confluence, our new wiki is more powerful and easier to use than before. Previously a small module component of our Redmine [...]
Karolina Hein posted this in Documentation on November 15th, 2010 | We try to be compatible with the configuration files of the current Nagios 3.x versions so there should be very little you have to do to upgrade from Nagios 3.x to Icinga 1.2. Assuming you’ve already installed Nagios from source code as described in the Nagios quickstart guide, you can install Icinga quite easily.
Please [...]
Amanda Mailer posted this in Documentation, Misc, Technical on September 2nd, 2010 | It’s coming to a year since our first RC 1.0, and we’re still getting much interest in Icinga. Of course, the age old question arises time again–“What’s the difference?”
We’ve tried it in words, we’ve tried it on YouTube and now we’ve tabled it! Thanks to a clever suggestion made by an Icinga user – [...]
Hi there,

Providing Icinga Core with integrated IDOUtils supporting MySQL/Postgres/Oracle, fresh docbook format and therefore enhanced documentation, a completely new Icinga API based on IDOUtils and providing data for the new upcoming Icinga Web. [...]
