Welcome to the Icinga 2 Setup Wizard!

We will guide you through all required configuration details.

Please specify if this is an agent/satellite setup ('n' installs a master setup)                                                                               [Y/n]: Y

Starting the Agent/Satellite setup routine...

Please specify the common name (CN) [ip-172-31-4-57.ap-south-1.compute.internal]:

Please specify the parent endpoint(s) (master or satellite) where this node should connect to:
Master/Satellite Common Name (CN from your master/satellite node): ip-172-31-12-175.ap-south-1.compute.i                                                      nternal

=====================================================
Step 3 - Install Apache 2
=====================================================
   26  apt-get update
   27  apt install apache2
   28  clear
   29  ls
   30  systemctl start apache2
   31  systemctl status apache2

=====================================================
Step 4 - Verify if Mod_Staus module in Apache2
=====================================================
$ ls /etc/apache2/mods-enabled | grep status*
status.conf
status.load
$ sudo /usr/sbin/a2enmod status
Module status already enabled

Note - If you want to enable - follow this - https://www.devopsschool.com/blog/how-to-install-mod_status-on-your-apache-servers-and-enable-extendedstatus/

=====================================================
Step 5 - Enable Mod Status Module from icinga server
=====================================================

$ more /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/status.conf
$ vi /etc/apache2/mods-enabled/status.conf
$ systemctl restart apache2


<IfModule mod_status.c>
        # Allow server status reports generated by mod_status,
        # with the URL of http://servername/server-status
        # Uncomment and change the "192.0.2.0/24" to allow access from other hosts.

        <Location /server-status>
                SetHandler server-status
                Require local
                Require ip 172.31.12.175
        </Location>

        # Keep track of extended status information for each request
        ExtendedStatus On

        # Determine if mod_status displays the first 63 characters of a request or
        # the last 63, assuming the request itself is greater than 63 chars.
        # Default: Off
        #SeeRequestTail On


        <IfModule mod_proxy.c>
                # Show Proxy LoadBalancer status in mod_status
                ProxyStatus On
        </IfModule>


</IfModule>


=====================================================
Step 6 - Enable Apache check in Icinga Server
=====================================================
   49  cd /etc/icinga2/conf.d/
   50  ls
   51  vi commands.conf


object CheckCommand "check_apache_status" {
    import "plugin-check-command"
    command = [ PluginDir + "/check_http" ]
    arguments = {
        "-H" = "$address$"
        "-u" = "/server-status?auto"
    }
}

OR

object CheckCommand "check_apache_status" {
    import "plugin-check-command"
    command = [ PluginDir + "/check_http" ]
    arguments = {
        "-H" = "172.31.4.57"
        "-u" = "/server-status?auto"
    }
}


$ systemctl restart icinga2
$ systemctl status icinga2
