Variable override/precedence for service objects

Icinga 2
,
1

Hi All,
I came across an unexpected behaviour when working with the load-Service, and I adapted the cload/wload parameters.

Btw. Version is: icinga2-bin-2.11.3-1.el7.icinga.x86_64

  1. conf.d/services.conf - unmodified

  2. the host definition is:

    cat zones.d/master/host1.anydomain.com.conf

     object Host "host1.anydomain.com" {
     import "small-host"

     address = "192.168.202.82"
     address6 = "fd24:1993:399:13::20B4"
     vars.customer = "MYCUST1"
     vars.bonds = "bond0"
     vars.IPenabled = true
     vars.notification.mail.groups = [ "icingaadmins" ]
     
     check_command ="hostalive"
     vars.client_endpoint = name
 }

 object Endpoint "host1.anydomain.com" {
     host = "host1.anydomain.com"
 }

 object Zone "host1.anydomain.com" {
     endpoints = [
         "host1.anydomain.com"
     ]
     parent = MasterZone
 }

using the following templates:

# cat zones.d/global-templates/templates.conf 
template Host "MY-host" {
    import "generic-host"

    vars.client_endpoint = name
    vars += {
        os = "Linux"
        MY = true
        noswap = true

        notification["mail"] = {
            groups = [ "icingaadmins" ]
            users = [ "icingaadmin" ]
        }

        disks["disk /"] = { disk_partitions = "/" }
        disks["disk /boot"] = { disk_partitions = "/boot" }
        disks["disk /opt"] = { disk_partitions = "/opt" }

        ipmi_address = "localhost"
        ipmi_protocal_lan_version = "OPENIPMI"
        ipmi_config_file = "/etc/icinga2/conf.d/ipmi.cfg"
        ipmi_sensor_type = "Temperature,Voltage,Fan,Power_Supply"

        load_wload1 = 7.0
        load_wload5 = 6.0
        load_wload15 = 4.0
        load_cload1 = 15.0
        load_cload5 = 8.0
        load_cload15 = 6.0
        load_percpu = "true"
    }
}

template Host "small-host" {
    import "MY-host"
  
    vars += {
        laitype = "small"

        procs_warning = 1000
        procs_critical = 2000
    }
}
  1. /usr/share/icinga2/include/command-plugins.conf - unchanged

As I understand then override/precedence sequence is: Service -> Host -> CheckCommand. So my setting in the host definition of cload/wload (via the templates) will override the definition in CheckCommand.

But, in icingaweb2 I have a kind of flipping in soft-states.
One minute the values from CheckCommand definition are shown, service goes red, and the next minute the correct values of the Host definition are shown, service goes green.

Questions are:
Am I doing something completely wrong? I’m sure it worked some time before…
Is the problem related to Icinga2-Core or to Iciningaweb2 ?

Any help appreciated.
Kind regards
Marcus
