Link to the Graphite Server CONFIGURATION

The Shinken Enterprise daemons need to be configured in order to send performance data (metrics) into the Graphite server (the graphite carbon daemon).
If the Graphite server is installed in the central Shinken Enterprise server then you don't have to edit the Shinken Enterprise configuration files.
If your Graphite server is installed on another server, you must edit two configuration files:

...

It is a comma separated list of REALM:ADDRESS entries. For each realm that have its own graphite server, you must enter the realm name and the address of the graphite-web server. The * realm name will be used if no other realms are matching (default entry).

Link to the mongoDB server CONFIGURATION

The Shinken Enterprise daemons need to be configured in order to send various data into a mongodb server.
If the mongodb server is running on the central server then you can skip this configuration part.
Such data will be send in the mongodb server:

...

In all the configuration file, you just need to change the mongodb uri (mongodb_uri or uri parameter) like this:
mongodb_uri mongodb://localhost/?safe=false
Just edit the address of your mongodb server.
Notice: Don't change the safe parameter.
