Hi

Doing some research, it appears that the outage of last week is not without an earlier similar instance ... [1]

We met in the IRC meeting today, but of course you are a few TZ east of me and so I assume left for the day

I looked at 'icinga' and checked my SRPM archive. I cannot find that it is not presently in Fedora / EPEL .... I seem to have a nagios solution, probably lifted in part from RawHide or EPEL or such, but at Nagios in the 3 series. I see that there is a nagios 4 version out there in, which may or may not be interesting. Is either the 'correct' choice in terms of Red Hat's architectural roadmap for its product, and if so should we be looking at that?

we can use any solution that we like it's a community project. I found icinga modern and nagios compatible so I chose it. i didn't install it from rpms just downloaded the tar.gz and installed

I am presented with a credential challenge on the existing unit: http://monitoring.ovirt.org/icinga

send an email to infra@ovirt.org asking for credentials.

As presently implemented, is this capable of being under SSO / LDAP control ? If so, what credential shall I use. Alternatively, please add a RO credential for me so I may 'look around'

I have a long-standing personal policy of packaging everything I use. It looks as though a packaging push was attempted at F17, but that it lost momentum. [2] Shall we start by packaging icinga and getting it into EPEL, or Fedora?

that won't be necessary. when I first set up icinga, there were no packages for rhel/fedora but now it appears that there are https://www.icinga.org/download/packages/

The relevant bug for this effort seems in part to be: [3] to which I have subscribed

Thanks
