If you are looking for some install hints, use my wiki guide - i wrote that recently when testing some stuff for my tfnoc vm, also icinga web integration [0]. > > As you can probably see in the other branch of this thread, I believe it > should be possible to encode this situation using multiple parents, but > that doesn't cover the entire business logic, of course... It's reasonable that you cannot achieve this simply out-of-the-box as the icinga core did not change that much from what nagios did and does. So you can see a lot of tools and workarounds of the problem within the Icinga 1.x space, and people will recommend them to you - since there isn't such integrated logic like "business rules" or "parent child relations with service dependencies" to make such scenarios a bit more pleasant to implement. Within Icinga 2 (first tech preview available) we are planning to change some parts of the described problems (I cannot garantuee that your exact problem could be solved by just 1 setting then, it's too soon at this stage of development). First off, the host itsself is not a check, but calculated a virtual state of its services (easy logic of business rules). This will take services into parent-child relations into account, and possibly also solve such multiple parent problems, if dependencies are easier then. Though, to note, this is early design phasis and not implemented. If you are interested in following Icinga 2, start at the website [1], wiki [2] and dev tracker [3]. As business rules are a "new feature" this is scheduled for a later milestone, as the primary target for the next milestone is "basic feature set" including various compat interfaces, once the new api is designed and implemented, business rules are on the roadmap (short summary, more on the dev tracker).
