Icinga Vagrant Boxes
Table of Contents
About
The Icinga Vagrant boxes allow you to run Icinga 2, Icinga Web 2 and integrations
(Graphite, InfluxDB, Grafana, Elastic Stack, Graylog) in various scenarios.
A simple vagrant up fully installs these VMs and you are ready to explore
the Icinga ecosystem and possible integrations.
You can use these boxes for your own local demos, or to learn how to use Icinga
in your environment. The Puppet provisioner uses official upstream modules
including puppet-icinga2 and puppet-icingaweb2.
Overview
Below are some sample screenshots. Keep in mind that software is under steady
development, so screenshots and features may change.

License
Box specific code is licensed under the terms of the GNU General Public License Version 2, you will find a copy of this license in the LICENSE file included in the source package.
Included Puppet modules in the .puppet/modules directory provide their own license details.
Support
These boxes are built for demos and development tests only. Team members and partners
may use these for their Icinga Camp presentations or any other event too.
Join the Icinga community channels for questions.
Note
Boxes can run snapshot builds and unstable code to test the latest and the greatest.
You can also use them to test Icinga packages prior to the next release.
In case you've found a problem or want to submit a patch, please open an issue
on GitHub and/or create a PR.
Requirements
- Vagrant >= 1.8.x
One of these virtualization providers:
Each Vagrant box setup requires at least 2 Cores and 2 GB RAM.
The required resources are automatically configured during the
vagrant up run.
Note
OpenStack VMs are provisioned remotely in your cloud provider.
Please continue here for a full documentation.
Optional:
- vagrant-hostmanager >= 1.8.1
Linux
VirtualBox
Example on Fedora (needs RPMFusion repository for VirtualBox):
sudo dnf install vagrant
sudo dnf install virtualbox
vagrant plugin install virtualbox
Fedora uses libvirt by default. More details on VirtualBox can be found here.
Example on Ubuntu:
$ sudo apt-get install vagrant
$ sudo apt-get install virtualbox
libvirt
libvirt uses NFS for shared folders in the VMs, nfs_udp: false is already set.
nfs3 needs to be enabled in your local firewall to allow connections.
# firewall-cmd --permanent --add-service=nfs3
# firewall-cmd --reload
macOS
macOS runs best with the Parallels provider, VirtualBox works as well.
Windows
Windows requires VirtualBox as provider. You'll also need the Git package which includes SSH.
Install the Git package and set autocrlf to false.
You can also set the options on the command line afterwards:
C:\Users\michi> git.exe config --global core.autocrlf false
Set the Windows command line as default:
Note
If
vagrant uphangs with Vagrant 2.0.0 on Windows 7, you might need to upgrade your Powershell
version. See this note for details.
Providers
Choose one of the providers below. VirtualBox can be used nearly everwhere. If
you have a Parallels Pro license on macOS, or prefer to use libvirt, that's possible
too.
Virtualbox
If Virtualbox is installed, this will be enabled by default.
The Virtualbox provider uses the bento base box.
Parallels
You'll need to install the vagrant-parallels
plugin first:
$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-parallels
The Parallels provider uses the bento base box.
VMware
Both VMware Workstation and the Vagrant plugin require their own license.
The Vagrant plugin installation is described here.
The VMware provider uses the bento base box.
Libvirt
You should have qemu and libvirt installed if you plan to run Vagrant
on your local system. Then install the vagrant-libvirt` plugin:
$ vagrant plugin install vagrant-libvirt
The libvirt provider uses the official CentOS base boxes.
