reading nagios configuration from a database (V2.9)

[Yishai Hadas]

Hello all,

 

We are in Aladdin evaluating Nagios as an option of using it as a
health-monitor framework.

We are looking for an option that Nagios configuration will be read on
startup and refreshed during run-time form a database rather then from
current text files so that we can easily write a GUI which will talk to
the database instead of using text files.

 

It seems that in old versions there was a basic DB support (not for
configuration) that was dropped.

Looking at the code of V2.9 seems that there is no support in the
framework to read configuration from DB rather then the configuration
files.

 

 

My questions:

 

1) Is there any existing add-on that can help here ?

2) Assuming that we really want Nagios to read configuration from a
database what is the recommended place holder to do it?

*         Does it mean changing the framework itself or there is an
option to interfere in one point at the code and get this done?  

 

 

 

This point is very important for us.

 

Thanks in advance,

 

Yishai.
