It's unclear if this is also needed to use in combination with icingadb #62

The name would say otherwise, however we noticed zero reporting templates when installing the reporting module in combination with icinga db.

The documentation still specifies only this module: https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-reporting/latest/idoreports/doc/02-Installation/

So do we need it or not with icingadb? And if not, what is the alternative? Without any templates, it does not seem very easy to start with making reports :)

If you have only Icinga DB Web + reporting, you'll see the same reports as previously. If you have Icinga DB Web + monitoring + reporting, you'll see Icinga DB Web's implementations specifically labelled: Screenshot from 2022-09-20 13-08-41

That's indeed suboptimal. @bobapple Please take a look.

No. Icinga DB Web should be enough.

Thanks, this explains my confusion, because in in my case there are NO reports and NO templates at all available, I'm only using icingadb, what can be the cause?

Is it normal to not see any reports then?

HOSTED-POWER commented 2 years ago

Ok, I see now reports ( after installing / reinstalling) ! I see Host SLA, Service SLA and system.

The templates tab is still empty, is this by design or should it have shipped with templates? :)

nilmerg commented 2 years ago

There are no default templates. You have to configure some first.

Ok than problems were solved by reinstalling icinga php modules and icingaweb / icingadb. Not sure which of these did it, thanks guys for helping me anyway!!! :D
