icinga2 is a great tool and I am doing a setup via chef. For a setup of 2 nodes in a master zone and 2 nodes in a checker zone (with their parent master), I am unable to find out the chef resources to do the initial cert generation and checker zone setup. When I did the setup manually without chef the wizard was very useful and I had to do a "icinga2 pki ticket -cn client" and I could setup the checker zone nodes. Is there a similar way to do so via chef? If not then do we follow the steps mentioned in http://serverfault.com/questions/647805/how-to-set-up-icinga2-remote-client-without-using-cli-wizard to get this working the wizard is interactive and if we are automating that we have to do it in a non-interactive way.

@saurabh_hirani there are more than one ways to achieve this which differs from how you are setting up your master / satellite nodes etc.

But, i agree that cookbook can offer some way to get things going. I will think about it in next couple of days.

JannikZed ascopenco any thoughts on it?

With icinga2 2.4 having api - having the feature would really be useful in enabling users to starting playing with the API

Any news on this one?
Is there anything one could contribute to get distributed setups up and running?
