Hi,
If we poke roles in the firewall so Icinga can reach the VMs and we
define the monitoring::service stuff in Puppet, is that all we need to
shutdown Shinken? Do you think there would be any concerns with going
that route?
I'm not sure, what checks does shinken do ATM that we'd need to port over
to icinga? Right off the bat it seems simpler to me to fire up a icinga
stretch VM and move over the checks and their puppetization to that VM
instead, what do you think?
I'm asking about this because soon we'll see
requests about removing
more and more Jessie support from the Puppet codebase [0] and there's no
exit strategy from Jessie for Shinken (it's not available in Stretch
unless we want to package things ourselves, which I tried and failed).
Ouch! I didn't realize there's no shinken in stretch :( though it seems
like a great occasion to get rid of it!
HTH,
Filippo
