How to add a satellite to an icinga master with an existing client?

This is a grep on the satellite’s name. i didin’t put all the output but if you want more tell me or if its too much tell me too.
I can refine the search, and I can do it with an other name. (i replaced satellite.FQDN by SATELLITE)

[root@satellite]# cat /var/log/icinga2/debug.log | grep “SATELLITE”

Thanks,
Louis,

What’s the content of /etc/icinga2/zones.d/satellite/SATELLITE.conf? Is that host object visible on the satellite, e.g. via icinga2 object list --type Host --name SATELLITE?

When you force a re-check via Icinga Web 2, trace it via the debug log on the master (receiving a command, forwarding it via cluster event ForceNextCheck, etc.) and the satellite’s debug log which receives the event, schedules a check, etc.

This is my SATELLITE.conf :

// Host Objects
object Host “SATELLITE” {
check_command = “ping4”
address = “IP PUBLIC SATELLITE”
vars.client_endpoint = “SATELLITE” //follows the convention that host name == endpoint
}

from the satellite :

icinga2 object list --type Host --name SATELLITE

When you force a re-check via Icinga Web 2, trace it via the debug log on the master (receiving a command, forwarding it via cluster event ForceNextCheck, etc.) and the satellite’s debug log which receives the event, schedules a check, etc.

this output is ok for you ? this what happened when i force a check.

Ok. So you’re syncing the satellite host object to the satellite itself, and letting it run local checks (memory, disk, etc.). In terms of the ping service, this doesn’t make sense, you should remove that specific service apply from the global/satellite zone.

Still, I’m wondering why you don’t sync a client host object to the satellite, the previous one which was defined in your master zone. This is the one which doesn’t work til now, right?

Hmm, I just wanted to be able to monitor a cluster that is not reachable directly from my master, it is not only through a machine “bridge” (satellite). That’s why I chosed this architecture. But if you tell me that there is more simple way I am not against.

Cheers,
