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

       state  'present', 'absent', defaults to 'present'. If '--install_helpers' is specified for
              'absent' the helper packages will be un-installed.

BOOLEAN PARAMETERS

       install_helpers
              Install helper packages used by Xymon (fping, heirloom-mailx, traceroute, ntpdate).

EXAMPLES

          # minmal
          __xymon_server

          # the same
          __xymon_server --state present

          # also install helper packages:
          __xymon_server --install_helpers

          # examples to give a more complete picture: __xymon_server installed on
          # `xymon.example.com` w/ IP 192.168.1.1:
          #
          # install webserver and grant 2 private subnets access to the webinterface:
          __xymon_apache --ipacl "192.168.0.0/16 10.0.0.0/8"
          # deploy server-configuration with __xymon_config:
          __xymon_config --confdir=xymon.example.com

          # install xymon-client on other machines (not needed on the server):
          __xymon_client --servers "192.168.1.1"
