Icinga 2

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the “Icinga 2” monitoring product that was created as a fork of an established availability monitoring solution and offers many significant improvements over its predecessor. It shows beginners and experienced users of other open-source monitoring tools how to set up a monitoring environment and expand it step by step to fit your individual needs.

The real-world examples included in the text show the approaches that work best for a variety of setups. Specific solutions for recurring tasks are combined with tips for solving issues not detailed explicitly in the book.

Monitoring examples include LINUX, UNIX, Windows Hosts, network devices, virtualization platforms, as well as network services such as web and mail servers, directory services, and databases.
