v4.0.0

This is a major release that refactors a significant amount of the service configuration to use data bags rather than hardcoding specific checks in the templates. The README describes how to create services via data bags.

The main incompatibility and breaking change is that the default services that are monitored by Nagios is reduced to only the "check-nagios" service. This means that existing installations will need to start converting checks over to the new data bag entries.

  • [COOK-1553] - Nagios: check_nagios command does not work if Nagios is installed from source
  • [COOK-1554] - Nagios: The nagios server should be added to all relevant host groups

  • [COOK-2132] - Update NRPE installs to 2.14 from 2.13
  • [COOK-2134] - Handle nagios-nrpe-server and nrpe names for NRPE in the init scripts and cookbook
  • [COOK-2135] - Use with-nagios-user and group options source NRPE installs
  • [COOK-2136] - Nagios will not pass config check when multiple machines in different domains have the same hostname
  • [COOK-2150] - hostgroups data bag search doesn't respect the multi_environment_monitoring attribute
  • [COOK-2186] - add service escalation to nagios
  • [COOK-2188] - A notification interval of zero is valid but prohibited by the cookbook
  • [COOK-2200] - Templates and Services from data bags don't specify intervals in the same way as the rest of the cookbook
  • [COOK-2216] - Nagios cookbook readme needs improvement
  • [COOK-2240] - Nagios server setup needs to gracefully fail when users data bag is not present

  • [COOK-2375] - Allows adding a service that utilizes a pre-existing command
  • [COOK-2433] - Nagios: ldap authentication needs to handle anonymous binding ldap servers

  • [COOK-2081] - add support for notes_url to nagios_services data bags
