IMPORTANT: Shinken entreprise don’t use a flat file for its configuration but Databases. - It imports all data from configured sources (Active directory, Shinken Framework or Nagios cfg file, … ) and combined them in a database.
- It uses a 2 levels configuration system:
- Pre-Production configuration database: the one where can be done modifications and which is used to the display the configuration interface. It allows adminstrators to modify the configuration, see potential problems without impacting the current IT supervision.
- Production configuration database: the one used by the Shinken Enterprise engine.
- Once administrator are satisfied by the Pre-Production configuration, he can copy (commit) it to the Production configuration.
