How should I enable the IDO MySQL module?

This module creates a new configuration file that can be install in /etc/icinga2/features-available/ido-mysql.conf. Execute the following commands to do this:

$ sudo vim /etc/icinga2/features-available/ido-mysql.conf  /**  * The db_ido_mysql library implements IDO functionality  * for MySQL.  */  library "db_ido_mysql"  object IdoMysqlConnection "ido-mysql" {  user = "icinga",  password = "icinga",  host = "localhost",  database = "icinga"  }

You should now enable the ido-mysql configuration file using the following commands, which represent the icinga2 attribute:

$ sudo icinga2 feature enable ido-mysql  Enabling feature ido-mysql. Make sure to restart Icinga 2 for these changes to take effect

Finally, restart Icinga 2 with the following command:

sudo systemctl restart icinga2
