In our community forum Michael already outlined the possibility to operate Icinga 2 with an external certification authority, not the one Icinga 2 generates by itself. Thomas, one of our NETWAYS colleagues, reported his experience in that field: in short, it’s easy to mess up lots of things and hard to debug them. And I absolutely agree. At the moment I’m reading TLS Mastery from Michael W. Lucas.

Icinga 2.14 introduced a new feature that allows to better model complex dependencies between your hosts and services: redundancy groups. Let’s take an e-mail server as an example. In order to deliver outgoing messages, it has to look up the addresses of the destination servers and relies on DNS for doing so. For incoming messages, it has to know which accounts exist and in a corporate environment, this typically means looking up user accounts in a directory service like LDAP.

This release of the collection will feature a whole set of possibilities to deploy a complete Icinga 2 environment. Before diving deep into the collection, a quick recap of all roles which were available and which are included in the current release v0.3.0. New Roles in v0.3.0 To further enhance the Icinga 2 installation process via Ansible those roles are vital for a successful deployment. The Icinga DB is the future backend of Icinga 2, this can be handled with our icingadb and icingadb_redis roles.
