cdist-type__xymon_server(7)
===========================
NAME
----
cdist-type__xymon_server - Install a Xymon server
DESCRIPTION
-----------
This cdist type installs a Xymon (https://www.xymon.com/) server and (optional)
required helper packages.
This includes the Xymon client as a dependency, so NO NEED to install
`__xymon_client` separately.
To access the webinterface a webserver is required. The cdist-type
`__xymon_apache` can be used to install and configure the apache webserver for
the use with Xymon.
Further and day-to-day configuration of Xymon can either be done manually in
`/etc/xymon/` or the directory can be deployed and managed by `__xymon_config`.
REQUIRED PARAMETERS
-------------------
None.
OPTIONAL PARAMETERS
-------------------
state
'present', 'absent', defaults to 'present'. If '--install_helpers' is
specified for 'absent' the helper packages will be un-installed.
BOOLEAN PARAMETERS
------------------
install_helpers
Install helper packages used by Xymon (fping, heirloom-mailx, traceroute,
ntpdate).
EXAMPLES
--------
.. code-block:: sh
# minmal
__xymon_server
# the same
__xymon_server --state present
# also install helper packages:
__xymon_server --install_helpers
# examples to give a more complete picture: __xymon_server installed on
# `xymon.example.com` w/ IP 192.168.1.1:
#
# install webserver and grant 2 private subnets access to the webinterface:
__xymon_apache --ipacl "192.168.0.0/16 10.0.0.0/8"
# deploy server-configuration with __xymon_config:
__xymon_config --confdir=xymon.example.com
# install xymon-client on other machines (not needed on the server):
__xymon_client --servers "192.168.1.1"
