NAME

cdist-type__xymon_server - Install a Xymon server

DESCRIPTION

This cdist type installs a Xymon (https://www.xymon.com/) server and (optional) required helper packages.

This includes the Xymon client as a dependency, so NO NEED to install __xymon_client separately.

To access the webinterface a webserver is required. The cdist-type __xymon_apache can be used to install and configure the apache webserver for the use with Xymon.

Further and day-to-day configuration of Xymon can either be done manually in /etc/xymon/ or the directory can be deployed and managed by __xymon_config.

REQUIRED PARAMETERS

None.

OPTIONAL PARAMETERS

BOOLEAN PARAMETERS
