Hi Jean,
I am not sure which merlin db version you used when coding the broker
for it, but my suggestion would be to use the merlin 0.9.0 one. This is
the latest stable one and the one they are currently developing on. In
regards to the reports the Ninja itself install will take care about the
additional tables needed and the broker itself, does not need to feed
those, because it's pulling the information from the exsting merlin
tables.
One question I have though, with the 0.5.6 version of Shinken. There now
is a module to run the "old" Nagios command pipe, which is great,
because when using Ninja adding comments or downtimes for example, these
are submitted to the nagios.cmd. (That is stuff not working in your
VMWare Virtual box builds). Nevertheless when I add a comment to a host
through Ninja, it successfully makes the entry and I can see that
comment in the Thruk frontend for example, but it does not appear on the
Ninja frontend, because the corresponding db table is not filled with
that data. I assume (haven't checked this yet) that the merlin daemon
usually needs to fill that piece of data, so it's not done by Ninja
itself.
That would mean that the merlin broker, needs to be adjusted in a way
that all kind of commands coming through Ninja frontend
(acknowledgements, comments, scheduled downtimes, etc.) are inserted
into the merlin db. I am not sure how big your focus is on this frontend
support, because I have seen you mentioning that Ninja is not multi
daemon compatible and if you use multiple daemons in shinken, you just
see half of the checks made. On the other hand it's a good frontend,
especially in the reports area, and this kind of functionality is always
a good "seller", when talking to the decision makers. J

Betreff: Re: [Shinken-devel] Feature request: merlindb
Hi everybody,
I added some new tickets for the merlindb broker. I think the
handling of the notification and the host- servicedependency is
importent, too.
Ticket#: 252 & 253
Greetings

Hi,
Thanks for the tickets and the sql :)
Should be ok for the next version so :)
Jean
