Good idea, but I don't good enough in programming...

Allow me to ask again some questions, something is not clear enough for me!
So, the icinga's config (means: hosts, switches, etc...) are in files *.cfg and
all the check results goes into the DB icinga (IDOutils).
Now with icinga-web: from where take icinga-web the information (config from
hosts, switches, etc...) and where it put the check results? Is the same DB?
Which are the relation between icinga and icinga-web? Do icinga-web receive
config's file automaticaly from icinga?
consider this as the archicture i'm referring to
http://www.icinga.org/about/nagios/architecture/
* core reads cfgs during startup
* core pumps configs through idomod into ido2db and then the idoutils db schema
(default 'icinga')
* core pumps status data and check results (historical data) also into idoutils
db
* icinga-web takes idoutils db as datasource (check icinga.io.xml for
credentials)
* icinga-web reads the configs, the status data and several historical tables
from idoutils db
* icinga-web needs it's own database in order to store: user credentials,
persistent views, cronks, etc
So, many questions and much headaches,
not that much. development is more headache sometimes. and right on it's
testing time for 1.3 - so if you have a test box available, please help us :)

Thanks for your reply. I've a little bit experience with icinga (normal) but
nothing about icinga-web. So, yesterday I've installed icinga (normal) in one
DB icinga and icinga-web into DB icinga-web. Do you mean that it is better to
run both into one DB? Or another question: it is possible to run both parallel
with the same configurations? Could you please tell me, how to put both in one
DB?
just fire up your rdbms shell, e.g. mysql and then create the databases and
import the schemas into the databases, like described in the docs.
if it's just one schema, you'll need to create one database (e.g. icinga) and
apply both schemas to that. but as said, this could cause problems and is not
recommended from my side. and having to dbs within a mysql daemon shouldn't
harm your system anyways.

Hi Michael,
Thanks you for your answer....
you're welcome. and one more thought - i don't know your setup, but when it
comes to a distributed setup in the future (more monitoring masters), you might
encounter the setup being changed (a central database host, another host with
icinga-web on it, and one with icinga-mobile) and removing the rdbms from the
monitoring host itsself. this will be a lot easier when just dumping one single
database, and moving it to a new location then. or when it comes to mind to
keep mysql as icinga-web config database, and change idoutils db from mysql to
pgsql. or something else ;-)
kind regards,
michael

Hi,
I've installed icinga with IDOutils and it seems working... Now I want to test
the icinga-web. In the documentation, it is written that we must to configure
DB for this application. My question is: Use icinga-web the same DB as IDOutils
or should I create I another one DB special for icinga-web?
for upgrading purposes on either idoutils or icinga-web i would recommend
creating 2 databases, applying the upgrade db schema only onto one of them.
this can als be of interest when removing one of them from the current host. or
when it comes to backup plans.
kind regards,
michael
Thanks in advance for your help
