Icinga2

Icinga2 Logo

Icinga 2 is a monitoring system which checks the availability of your network resources, notifies users of outages, and generates performance data for reporting.

Scalable and extensible, Icinga can monitor large, complex environments across multiple locations.

Icinga 2 is the monitoring server and requires Icinga Web 2 on top in your Icinga Stack, which is already included as part of the nmaas deployment.

The configuration can be easily managed with either the Icinga Director, config management tools or plain text within the Icinga DSL.
