<h3 id="label-Synopsis">Synopsis</h3>
<p>NRPE allows monitoring tools like NAGIOS or ICINGA to connect to clients
for monitoring purposes.</p>
<p><code>cd_nrpe</code> is a fully parameterized Puppet module to automate
NRPE installation and configuration.</p>
<h3 id="label-WARNING">WARNING</h3>
<p><code>**__!!! Attention: Never use this puppet module on systems which have
been previously configured manually. It is impossible to predict how and
what would have been configured, hence previuos configurations outside the
scope of this module may be overwritten! Automated configurations require a
test environment to verify that the module suits the purpose intended by
the user, as well as tune the parameters, before deploying into live
production!!! __**</code></p>

2017-07-28 17:58:08 +02:00
<p><code>cd_nrpe</code> does typically not need to be specifically declared.
It will be auto-required by <code>cd_nagios</code> with default settings.
Only if you want to override settings declare it specifically.</p>

<h4 id="label-through+Foreman%3A">through Foreman:</h4>
<p>In order to apply parameters through Foreman,
<strong>cd_nrpe::params</strong> must be added to the host or hostgroup in
2017-07-28 17:58:08 +02:00
question, unless the defaults are fully acceptable across the estate.</p>

details about class deployment on Confdroid.com</a>.</p>
<h3 id="label-Parameters">Parameters</h3>
<p>The following parameters are editable via params.pp or through ENC
(<strong>recommended</strong>). Values changed will take immediate effect
at next puppet run. Services will be restarted where neccessary.</p>
<h3 id="label-SELINUX">SELINUX</h3>
<p>All files and directories are configured with correct selinux context. If
selinux is disabled, these contexts are ignored.</p>

<p>Puppet Lint</p>
</li><li>
<p>excluded tests:</p>
<ul><li>
<p><code>--no-class_inherits_from_params_class-check</code>:relavant only to
non-supported outdated puppet versions</p>
</li><li>
<p><code>--no-variable_scope-check</code>: not applicable as we are inheriting
parameters from params class. the lint check does not distinguish between
facts and inherited parameters.</p>
</li><li>
<p><code>--no-80chars-check</code>: it is not always possible to stay within
80 characters, although typically only occurring on the parameter vault
<code>params.pp</code>.</p>
</li><li>
<p><code>--no-arrow_alignment-check</code>: this check leads to actually not
having am easily readable arrow alignment, as this checks <code>per
block</code>, not per class.</p>
</li></ul>
</li><li>
<p>Puppet Parser</p>
</li><li>
<p>ERB Template Parser</p>
</li><li>
<p>Test for unwanted UTF8 files in the Puppet code as this causes problems
with PuppetDB (see tests/UTF_Files)</p>

<p>ConfDroid as entity is entirely independent from Puppet. We provide custom
configuration modules, written for specific purposes and specific
environments.
The modules are tested and supported only as documented, and
require testing in designated environments (i.e. lab or development
environments) for parameter tuning etc. before deploying into production
environments.</p>
