Hi, Is there a way or an ITL plugin available to setup a health check for Satellite beside the “cluster-zone” ? I would like to setup the Icinga2 daemon health-check for that matter on every cluster node. I’m also looking for the performance metrics off Satellite nodes to monitor them in Grafana. Please advise. Thanks ---

Hello, i use the [icinga](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga2/latest/doc/10-icinga-template-library/#icinga) check on every satelite. Regards, Carsten ---

Hi, we use also the icinga-check as @anon66228339 mentioned. You could also use a cluster check like [cluster](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga2/latest/doc/10-icinga-template-library/#cluster) and [cluster-zone](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga2/latest/doc/10-icinga-template-library/#cluster-zone) to know if the satellite is connected with the master and vica versa. ---

All of the mentioned checks provides performance data as well. ---

Thank you @anon66228339 ! Somehow I missed the “icinga” check and I’ve had other two tests setup already. Is there any health check command available for Icingaweb2 ? How do you guys monitor the health of Icingaweb2? Thanks ---

We don’t monitor icingaweb2. Here is the best monitor ourselfs while using. If something don’t work we’ll see it 😉 Because it’s only a website you can monitor - your webserver (apache, nginx …) - the http(s) ports - php ---

Hi everyone, I hope you are all fit and well. Can someone help me to run the icinga check. I went here: [icinga](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga2/latest/doc/10-icinga-template-library/#icinga) but no information on how to run the check. I am logged in to a satellite server and want to run a few checks to see if master/satellite is set up correctly as I have a Master =\> Satellite in Top Down configuration by following the docs here: [Top Down](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga2/latest/doc/06-distributed-monitoring/#top-down) What can I run on the command line of a Master/Satellite to confirm I have configured the Satellite correctly? Thanks in advance Pete ---

Hi Pete, [icinga](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga2/latest/doc/10-icinga-template-library/#icinga) is a built-in command. It is not intended to be executed via cli but as a service. BTW: It’s not a good idea to reuse a thread, especially when it is marked as solved.
