User Management in Icinga2/Icingaweb2¶

Note: Unlike Icingaweb2, all configuration of Icinga2 happens via text file configurations and/or a REST API.  The text files all reside in orange.megaphonetech.com:/etc/icinga2/conf.d.

User Management¶

Add an entry to users.conf that uses the following pattern:

object User "jon" {
  import "generic-user"
  display_name = "Jon Snow"
  groups = [ "icingaadmins" ]
  email = "jon@example.org"
}

At the time of this writing, adding a user to "icingaadmins" will cause them to receive ALL notifications on all issues.

User Management¶

As an administrator, go to Configuration menu » Authorization »Users.  There's an administrator login in the password manager.  After creating the user, select it and press the "Create New Membership" button to add the user to the "Administrators" group.
