Cluster check

Icinga 2

Hello,

Are you supposed to apply “cluster” check on all Icinga2 nodes ( master and satellites ) ?

Thanks

Hi @monigacom,
I would not recommend that, since (at least on master and satellites) one missing node will cause a complaint and in a bigger setup there is always at least one machine down.
I would recommend one Service with the cluster-zone check per agent/satellite which is more targeted.
The cluster CheckCommand is mostly useful for debugging or in small setups in my opinion.

Thanks. I’ve the “cluster” check currently only on the masters. I do have cluster zone check on all zones. I’m interested in the performance data the check offers for monitoring purposes besides the performance data of all other inbuilt checks.
