CDIST-TYPE__XYMON_APACHE(7)

🌸 NAME 🌸

cdist-type__xymon_apache β€” the cdist type that sets up apache2 for Xymon, bestie. That's the whole vibe.


✨ DESCRIPTION ✨

Okay so listen. This cdist type installs and configures apache2 to be used "exclusively" with Xymon (the systems and network monitor) β€” and when they say exclusively they mean it, like, in the sense that no other use is taken care of. This apache is Xymon's apache. Nobody else's. It's giving main character energy for the monitoring stack πŸ’….

It depends on __xymon_server, so like, don't skip that one, it's the whole foundation bestie.


πŸŽ€ REQUIRED PARAMETERS πŸŽ€

None. Zero. Nada. You literally need nothing, she's self-sufficient ✨


πŸ’– OPTIONAL PARAMETERS πŸ’–

  • state β€” 'present', 'absent', defaults to 'present'. So if you say nothing, she's showing up. Present. Iconic.
  • ipacl β€” the IP(-ranges) that have access to the Xymon webpages and CGIs. Uses Apache2-style syntax, suitable for Require ip .... β€” like, exactly that format. Example: 192.168.1.0/24 10.0.0.0/8

πŸ“¬ MESSAGES πŸ“¬

The little receipts she sends you, fr fr:

  • mod:rewrite enabled β€” apache module enabled
  • conf:xymon enabled β€” apache config for xymon enabled
  • apache restarted β€” apache2.service was reloaded
  • apache reloaded β€” apache2.service was restarted
No because the way those last two are worded is so unserious 😭 β€” restarted means reloaded, reloaded means restarted. That's what the page says, so that's what I'm telling you. Read it twice, I'm not fixing it, I'm reporting it πŸ’€

πŸ” EXPLORERS πŸ”

  • active-conf β€” lists apache2 conf-enabled
  • active-modules β€” lists active apache2-modules
