UCS Nagios Configuration

UCS - Univention Corporate Server
#1

I used to have Nagios installed on UCS for a time. I started running out of room in /var, so I basically removed any and all docker stuff. But I did miss Nagios, so I recently reinstalled it on a separate Debian 10 based server.

I now want to monitor UCS again. Are there some conifg files somewhere I can look at to get an idea of how to implement that? Is there a how-to guide somewhere for that?

maxTim,

I ran Nagios Core years ago. Even made my own plugins. You will find that UCS does a lot of the “legwork” for you. Every small change means hours of code changes.

A good starting point is here: https://www.scaleway.com/en/docs/deploy-nagios-on-scaleway/

You can skip down to the adding servers and monitoring services:
nano /usr/local/nagios/etc/servers/remote_host.cfg

Hope this helps.
