Howto tell the Director to use a specific host for expensive checks?

Icinga Web Modules Icinga Director

I got it working!

  1. edited the zones.conf on the masters and the satellite to be.
  2. had to disable the satellite to be in the director
  3. deploy config
  4. rerun director kick start
  5. assign hosts to the new zone

Then the debugging started :wink:
I had to watch /var/lib/icinga2/api/zones-stage-startup-last- failed.log on the new satellite for errors and fix one after the other.
This required moving one templates at a time to global zones or the other way into mater to reduce dependencies (had apply rules) and deploy again, deploy and check again for errors in the log. Also had to clone a some service templates as I didn’t want to deploy a token to every host with an agent installed.
