The default column shows the value used by the module if the Shinken Enterprise Administrator didn't update it.

Here there an example of the module definition:

Code Block
define module{
	# Shinken Enterprise. Lines added by import core. 
	# Do not remove it, it's used by Shinken Enterprise to update your objects if you re-import them.
	_SE_UUID XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
	_SE_UUID_HASH XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
	# End of Shinken Enterprise part

	cfg_path /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg
}

source defined.


When you have many source of source of configuration (for exemple example 2 nagios to import in your shinken), we advise you to create 2 automatic sources.


If you keep only one source, you will have to merge the 2 nagios configurations in the same directory. You may have naming conflict...


To have an additional source,:

  1. Copy  /etc/shinken/modules/cfg-file-nagios.cfg  into an other cfg file name and configure it it.
    • Remember that the module_name must be unique (Example: my_module_name)

    Copy  /etc/shinken/sources/cfg-file-nagios.cfg into an other cfg file name and configure it.
    • Remember that the source_name must be unique.
      (Example:  my_source_name)
       
    • modules must be set to the new module you just define (my_module_name)
       
  2. Then you must declare the source_name source in the file /etc/shinken/synchronizers/synchronizer-master.cfg.
    • add the source name in the line sources

    • sources syncui,cfg-file-shinken,active-dir,sync-vmware,cfg-file-nagios,discovery, my_source_name
