Compatibility - supported Sensu versions

If not explicitly stated it should always support the latest Sensu release. Beginning with v4.0.0 this module will only support Sensu Go 5.16+. Please log an issue if you identify any incompatibilities.

Sensu Go Version Recommended Puppet Module Version
5.0 - 5.15 latest v3
5.16+ latest v4

Upgrade note

Sensu Go 5.x is a rewrite of Sensu and no longer depends on redis and rabbitmq. Version 3 of this module supports Sensu Go 5.0.0 to 5.15.x. Version 4 of this module supports Sensu Go 5.16+.

Users wishing to use the previous Ruby based Sensu should use the sensu/sensuclassic module.

Deprecations

sensu_asset

The url, sha512, filters and headers properties for sensu_asset are deprecated in favor of passing these values as part of builds property. Using these deprecated properties will still work but issue a warning when the Puppet catalog is applied.

Before:

sensu_asset { 'test':
  ensure  => 'present',
  url     => 'http://example.com/asset/example.tar',
  sha512  => '4f926bf4328fbad2b9cac873d117f771914f4b837c9c85584c38ccf55a3ef3c2e8d154812246e5dda4a87450576b2c58ad9ab40c9e2edc31b288d066b195b21b',
  filters  => ["entity.system.os == 'linux'"],
}

After:

sensu_asset { 'test':
  ensure => 'present',
  builds => [
    {
      'url'     => 'http://example.com/asset/example.tar',
      'sha512'  => '4f926bf4328fbad2b9cac873d117f771914f4b837c9c85584c38ccf55a3ef3c2e8d154812246e5dda4a87450576b2c58ad9ab40c9e2edc31b288d066b195b21b',
      'filters' => ["entity.system.os == 'linux'"],
    },
  ],
}

Setup

What sensu effects

This module will install packages, create configuration and start services necessary to manage Sensu agents and backend.

Setup requirements

Plugin sync is required if the custom sensu types and providers are used.

Soft module dependencies

For systems using apt:

For systems using yum and Puppet >= 6.0.0:

For Windows:

For PostgreSQL datastore support:

Beginning with Sensu

This module provides Vagrant definitions that can be used to get started with Sensu.

vagrant up sensu-backend
vagrant ssh sensu-backend

Beginning with a Sensu cluster

Multiple Vagrant boxes are available for testing a sensu-backend cluster.

vagrant up sensu-backend-peer1 sensu-backend-peer2
vagrant provision sensu-backend-peer1 sensu-backend-peer2

Beginning with a Sensu federated cluster

Multiple Vagrant boxes are available for testing a Sensu Go federated cluster. First build and provision both then provision the first a second time to view that the custom role was replicated.

vagrant up sensu-backend-federated1 sensu-backend-federated2
vagrant provision sensu-backend-federated1

The provision command should output from sensuctl the test Sensu Go Role that was created on the other backend. The output should look like the following:

    sensu-backend-federated1:   Name   Namespace   Rules  
    sensu-backend-federated1:  ────── ─────────── ─────── 
    sensu-backend-federated1:   test   default         1  

Usage

Basic Sensu backend

The following example will configure sensu-backend, sensu-agent on backend and add a check. By default this module will configure the backend to use Puppet's SSL certificate and CA. It's advisable to not rely on the default password. Changing the password requires providing the previous password via old_password.

  class { 'sensu':
    password     => 'supersecret',
    old_password => 'P@ssw0rd!',
  }
  include sensu::backend
  include sensu::agent
  sensu_check { 'check-cpu':
    ensure        => 'present',
    command       => 'check-cpu.sh -w 75 -c 90',
    interval      => 60,
    subscriptions => ['linux'],
  }

Basic Sensu agent

The following example will manage resources necessary to configure a sensu-agent to communicate with a sensu-backend and associated to linux and apache-servers subscriptions.

  class { 'sensu::agent':
    backends      => ['sensu-backend.example.com:8081'],
    subscriptions => ['linux', 'apache-servers'],
  }

Basic Sensu CLI

The following example will manage the resources necessary to use sensuctl.

class { '::sensu':
  api_host => 'sensu-backend.example.com',
  password => 'supersecret',
}
include sensu::cli

NOTE: The sensu::backend class calls the sensu::cli class so it is only necessary to directly call the sensu::cli class on hosts not using the sensu::backend class.

For Windows the install_source parameter must be provided:

class { '::sensu':
  api_host => 'sensu-backend.example.com',
  password => 'supersecret',
}
class { 'sensu::cli':
  install_source => 'https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/sensu.io/sensu-go/5.14.1/sensu-go_5.14.1_windows_amd64.zip',
}

API Providers

All the core resources have a provider that manages resources using the Sensu Go API. The new provider can be used by setting provider parameter on a resource to sensu_api. The default provider is still sensuctl but it's possible to change the provider when defining a resource. For example the following will create a check which can be defined on an host that's not the sensu-backend.

include ::sensu::api
sensu_check { "check-cpu-${facts['hostname']}":
  ensure        => 'present',
  command       => 'check-cpu.sh -w 75 -c 90',
  interval      => 60,
  subscriptions => ["entity:${facts['hostname']}"],
  provider      => 'sensu_api',
}

The sensu::api class is required in order to configure the credentials and URL used to communicate with the Sensu backend API.

The API URL, username and password used for the API are set in the sensu class and can be set easily with Hiera:

sensu::api_host: sensu-backend.example.com
sensu::api_port: 8080
sensu::username: admin
sensu::password: supersecret
sensu::old_password: 'P@ssw0rd!'

Manage Windows Agent

This module supports Windows Sensu Go agent via chocolatey beginning with version 5.12.0.

class { 'sensu::agent':
  backends      => ['sensu-backend.example.com:8081'],
  subscriptions => ['windows'],
}

If you do not wish to install using chocolatey then you must define package_source as either a URL, a Puppet source or a filesystem path.

Install sensu-go-agent on Windows from URL:

class { 'sensu::agent':
  package_name   => 'Sensu Agent',
  package_source => 'https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/sensu.io/sensu-go/5.13.1/sensu-go-agent_5.13.1.5957_en-US.x64.msi',
}

Install sensu-go-agent on Windows from Puppet source:

class { 'sensu::agent':
  package_name   => 'Sensu Agent',
  package_source => 'puppet:///modules/profile/sensu/sensu-go-agent.msi',
}

If a system already has the necessary MSI present it can be installed without downloading from an URL:

class { 'sensu::agent':
  package_name   => 'Sensu Agent',
  package_source => 'C:\Temp\sensu-go-agent.msi',
}

Advanced agent

If you wish to change the agent password you must provide the new and old password. It's advisable to set show_diff to false to avoid exposing the agent password.

class { 'sensu::backend':
  agent_password     => 'supersecret',
  agent_old_password => 'P@ssw0rd!',
}
class { 'sensu::agent':
  config_hash => {
    'password' => 'supersecret',
  },
  show_diff   => false,
}

Advanced agent - Subscriptions

It's possible to define subscriptions in many locations and the values merged into agent.yml:

class { 'sensu::agent':
  subscriptions => ['base'],
}

Then in a profile class for Apache you could define the following:

sensu::agent::subscription { 'apache': }

The resulting agent.yml would contain subscriptions for both base and apache.

Advanced SSL

By default this module uses Puppet's SSL certificates and CA. If you would prefer to use different certificates override the ssl_ca_source, ssl_cert_source and ssl_key_source parameters. The value for api_host must be valid for the provided certificate and the value used for agent's backends must also match the certificate used by the specified backend. If the certificates and keys are already installed then define the source parameters as filesystem paths.

class { 'sensu':
  ssl_ca_source => 'puppet:///modules/profile/sensu/ca.pem',
  api_host      => 'sensu-backend.example.com',
}
class { 'sensu::backend':
  ssl_cert_source => 'puppet:///modules/profile/sensu/cert.pem',
  ssl_key_source  => 'puppet:///modules/profile/sensu/key.pem',
}
class { 'sensu':
  ssl_ca_source => 'puppet:///modules/profile/sensu/ca.pem',
}
class { 'sensu::agent':
  backends      => ['sensu-backend.example.com:8081'],
  subscriptions => ['linux', 'apache-servers'],
}

To disable SSL support:

class { 'sensu':
  use_ssl => false,
}

Enterprise Support

In order to activate enterprise support the license file needs to be added:

class { 'sensu::backend':
  license_source => 'puppet:///modules/profile/sensu/license.json',
}

The types sensu_ad_auth and sensu_ldap_auth require a valid enterprise license.

Contact routing

See Sensu Go - Contact Routing for details. The following is one way to configure contact routing in Puppet.

Add the sensu-go-has-contact-filter bonsai asset:

sensu_bonsai_asset { 'sensu/sensu-go-has-contact-filter':
  ensure  => 'present',
  version => '0.2.0',
}

Add the filters for the defined contacts

sensu_filter { 'contact_dev':
  ensure         => 'present',
  action         => 'allow',
  runtime_assets => ['sensu/sensu-go-has-contact-filter'],
  expressions    => ['has_contact(event, "dev")'],
}
sensu_filter { 'contact_ops':
  ensure         => 'present',
  action         => 'allow',
  runtime_assets => ['sensu/sensu-go-has-contact-filter'],
  expressions    => ['has_contact(event, "ops")'],
}

Add the handlers asset and handlers for each contact

sensu_bonsai_asset { 'sensu/sensu-email-handler':
  ensure  => 'present',
  version => '0.2.0',
}
sensu_handler { 'email_dev':
  ensure          => 'present',
  type            => 'pipe',
  command         => 'sensu-email-handler -f root@localhost -t [email protected] -s localhost -i',
  timeout         => 10,
  runtime_assets  => ['sensu/sensu-email-handler'],
  filters         => ['is_incident','not_silenced','contact_dev'],
}
sensu_handler { 'email_ops':
  ensure          => 'present',
  type            => 'pipe',
  command         => 'sensu-email-handler -f root@localhost -t [email protected] -s localhost -i',
  timeout         => 10,
  runtime_assets  => ['sensu/sensu-email-handler'],
  filters         => ['is_incident','not_silenced','contact_ops'],
}

Create a handler set to centralize handler management for emails

sensu_handler { 'email':
  ensure    => 'present',
  type      => 'set',
  handlers  => ['email_dev','email_ops'],
}

Lastly define a service that use the contact and the email handler:

sensu_check { 'check_cpu':
  ensure         => 'present',
  labels         => {
    'contacts' => 'dev, ops',
  },
  command        => 'check-cpu.rb -w 75 -c 90',
  handlers       => ['email'],
  interval       => 30,
  publish        => true,
  subscriptions  => ['linux'],
  runtime_assets => ['sensu-plugins-cpu-checks','sensu-ruby-runtime'],
}

Agents can also have contacts defined:

class { 'sensu::agent':
  labels => {
    'contacts' => 'dev, ops',
  },
}

PostgreSQL datastore support

NOTE: This features require a valid Sensu Go enterprise license.

The following example will add a PostgreSQL server and database to the sensu-backend host and configure Sensu Go to use PostgreSQL as the event datastore.

class { 'postgresql::globals':
  manage_package_repo => true,
  version             => '9.6',
}
class { 'postgresql::server': }
class { 'sensu::backend':
  license_source      => 'puppet:///modules/profile/sensu/license.json',
  datastore           => 'postgresql',
  postgresql_password => 'secret',
}

Refer to the puppetlabs/postgresql module documentation for details on how to manage PostgreSQL with Puppet.

The following example uses an external PostgreSQL server.

class { 'sensu::backend':
  license_source       => 'puppet:///modules/profile/sensu/license.json',
  datastore            => 'postgresql',
  postgresql_password  => 'secret',
  postgresql_host      => 'postgresql.example.com',
  manage_postgresql_db => false,
}

Installing Plugins

Plugin management is handled by the sensu::plugins class.

Example installing plugins on agent:

  class { 'sensu::agent':
    backends      => ['sensu-backend.example.com:8081'],
    subscriptions => ['linux', 'apache-servers'],
  }
  class { 'sensu::plugins':
    plugins => ['disk-checks'],
  }

The plugins parameter can also be a Hash that sets the version:

  class { 'sensu::agent':
    backends      => ['sensu-backend.example.com:8081'],
    subscriptions => ['linux', 'apache-servers'],
  }
  class { 'sensu::plugins':
    plugins => {
      'disk-checks' => { 'version' => 'latest' },
    },
  }

Set dependencies to an empty Array to disable the sensu::plugins dependency management.

  class { 'sensu::plugins':
    dependencies => [],
  }

If gems are required and not pulled in as gem dependencies they can also be installed.

class { 'sensu::plugins':
  plugins          => ['memory-checks'],
  gem_dependencies => ['vmstat'],
}

You can uninstall plugins by passing ensure as absent.

  class { 'sensu::agent':
    backends      => ['sensu-backend.example.com:8081'],
    subscriptions => ['linux', 'apache-servers'],
  }
  class { 'sensu::plugins':
    plugins => {
      'disk-checks' => { 'ensure' => 'absent' },
    },
  }

Installing Extensions

Extension management is handled by the sensu::plugins class.

Example installing extension on backend:

  class { 'sensu':
    password     => 'supersecret',
    old_password => 'P@ssw0rd!',
  }
  include sensu::backend
  class { 'sensu::plugins':
    extensions => ['graphite'],
  }

The extensions parameter can also be a Hash that sets the version:

  class { 'sensu':
    password     => 'supersecret',
    old_password => 'P@ssw0rd!',
  }
  include sensu::backend
  class { 'sensu::plugins':
    extensions => {
      'graphite' => { 'version' => 'latest' },
    },
  }

You can uninstall extensions by passing ensure as absent.

  class { 'sensu':
    password     => 'supersecret',
    old_password => 'P@ssw0rd!',
  }
  include sensu::backend
  class { 'sensu::plugins':
    extensions => {
      'graphite' => { 'ensure' => 'absent' },
    },
  }

Exported resources

One possible approach to defining checks is having agents export their checks to the sensu-backend using Exported Resources.

The following example would be defined for agents:

  @@sensu_check { 'check-cpu':
    ensure        => 'present',
    command       => 'check-cpu.sh -w 75 -c 90',
    interval      => 60,
    subscriptions => ['linux'],
  }

The backend system would collect all sensu_check resources.

  Sensu_check <<||>>

Hiera resources

All the types provided by this module can have their resources defined via Hiera. A type such as sensu_check would be defined via sensu::resources::checks.

The sensu class must be included either directly or via sensu::agent or sensu::backend.

The following example adds an asset, filter, handler and checks via Hiera:

sensu::resources::assets:
  sensu-email-handler:
    ensure: present
    url: 'https://github.com/sensu/sensu-email-handler/releases/download/0.1.0/sensu-email-handler_0.1.0_linux_amd64.tar.gz'
    sha512: '755c7a673d94997ab9613ec5969666e808f8b4a8eec1ba998ee7071606c96946ca2947de5189b24ac34a962713d156619453ff7ea43c95dae62bf0fcbe766f2e'
    filters:
      - "entity.system.os == 'linux'"
      - "entity.system.arch == 'amd64'"
sensu::resources::filters:
  hourly:
    ensure: present
    action: allow
    expressions:
      - 'event.check.occurrences == 1 || event.check.occurrences % (3600 / event.check.interval) == 0'
sensu::resources::handlers:
  email:
    ensure: present
    type: pipe
    command: "sensu-email-handler -f root@localhost -t [email protected] -s localhost -i"
    timeout: 10
    runtime_assets:
      - sensu-email-handler
    filters:
      - is_incident
      - not_silenced
      - hourly
sensu::resources::checks:
  check-cpu:
    ensure: present
    command: check-cpu.sh -w 75 -c 90
    interval: 60
    subscriptions:
      - linux
    handlers:
      - email
    publish: true
  check-disks:
    ensure: present
    command: "/opt/sensu-plugins-ruby/embedded/bin/check-disk-usage.rb -t '(xfs|ext4)'"
    subscriptions:
      - linux
    handlers:
      - email
    interval: 1800
    publish: true

Resource purging

All the types provided by this module support purging except sensu_config. This example will remove all unmanaged Sensu checks:

sensu_resources { 'sensu_check':
  purge => true,
}

NOTE: The Puppet built-in resources can also be used for purging but you must ensure that resources that support namespaces are defined using composite names in the form of $name in $namespace. See Composite Names for Namespaces for details on composite names.

Using the Puppet built-in resources would look like this:

resources { 'sensu_check':
  purge => true,
}

Sensu backend cluster

A sensu-backend cluster can be defined for fresh installs by defining the necessary config_hash values. The following examples are using Hiera and assume the sensu::backend class is included.

# data/fqdn/sensu-backend1.example.com.yaml
---
sensu::backend::config_hash:
  etcd-advertise-client-urls: "http://%{facts.ipaddress}:2379"
  etcd-listen-client-urls: "http://%{facts.ipaddress}:2379"
  etcd-listen-peer-urls: 'http://0.0.0.0:2380'
  etcd-initial-cluster: 'backend1=http://192.168.0.1:2380,backend2=http://192.168.0.2:2380'
  etcd-initial-advertise-peer-urls: "http://%{facts.ipaddress}:2380"
  etcd-initial-cluster-state: 'new'
  etcd-initial-cluster-token: ''
  etcd-name: 'backend1'
# data/fqdn/sensu-backend2.example.com.yaml
---
sensu::backend::config_hash:
  etcd-advertise-client-urls: "http://%{facts.ipaddress}:2379"
  etcd-listen-client-urls: "http://%{facts.ipaddress}:2379"
  etcd-listen-peer-urls: 'http://0.0.0.0:2380'
  etcd-initial-cluster: 'backend1=http://192.168.0.1:2380,backend2=http://192.168.0.2:2380'
  etcd-initial-advertise-peer-urls: "http://%{facts.ipaddress}:2380"
  etcd-initial-cluster-state: 'new'
  etcd-initial-cluster-token: ''
  etcd-name: 'backend2'

Adding backend members to an existing cluster

Adding new members to an existing cluster requires two steps.

First, add the member to the catalog on one of the existing cluster backends with the sensu_cluster_member type.

sensu_cluster_member { 'backend3':
  peer_urls => ['http://192.168.0.3:2380'],
}

Second, configure and start sensu-backend to interact with the existing cluster. The output from Puppet when a new sensu_cluster_member is applied will print some of the values needed.

# data/fqdn/sensu-backend3.example.com.yaml
---
sensu::backend::config_hash:
  etcd-advertise-client-urls: "http://%{facts.ipaddress}:2379"
  etcd-listen-client-urls: "http://%{facts.ipaddress}:2379"
  etcd-listen-peer-urls: 'http://0.0.0.0:2380'
  etcd-initial-cluster: 'backend1=http://192.168.0.1:2380,backend2=http://192.168.0.2:2380,backend3=http://192.168.0.3:2380'
  etcd-initial-advertise-peer-urls: "http://%{facts.ipaddress}:2380"
  etcd-initial-cluster-state: 'existing'
  etcd-initial-cluster-token: ''
  etcd-name: 'backend3'

The first step will not fully add the node to the cluster until the second step is performed.

Sensu backend federation

This module supports defining Etcd replicators which allows resources to be sent from one Sensu cluster to another cluster. It's necessary that Etcd be listening on an interface that can be accessed by other Sensu backends. First configure backend Etcd to listen on an interface besides localhost and also use SSL:

class { 'sensu::backend':
  config_hash => {
    'etcd-listen-client-urls'    => "https://0.0.0.0:2379",
    'etcd-advertise-client-urls' => "https://0.0.0.0:2379",
    'etcd-cert-file'             => "/etc/sensu/etcd-ssl/${facts['fqdn'].pem",
    'etcd-key-file'              => "/etc/sensu/etcd-ssl/${facts['fqdn']}-key.pem",
    'etcd-trusted-ca-file'       => "/etc/sensu/etcd-ssl/ca.pem",
    'etcd-client-cert-auth'      => true,
  },
}

Next configure the Etcd replicator on the backend you wish to push resources from. In the following example all defined Role resources will be replicated to the backend at the IP address 192.168.52.30.

sensu_etcd_replicator { 'role_replicator':
  ensure        => 'present',
  ca_cert       => '/etc/sensu/etcd-ssl/ca.pem',
  cert          => '/etc/sensu/etcd-ssl/client.pem',
  key           => '/etc/sensu/etcd-ssl/client-key.pem',
  url           => 'https://192.168.52.30:2379',
  resource_name => 'Role',
}
sensu_role { 'test':
  ensure => 'present',
  rules  => [{'verbs' => ['get','list'], 'resources' => ['checks'], 'resource_names' => ['']}],
}

This module also supports defining a federated cluster:

sensu_cluster_federation { 'us-west-2a':
  ensure   => 'present',
  api_urls => [
    'https://sensu-backend-site1.example.com:8080',
    'https://sensu-backend-site2.example.com:8080',
  ],
}

It's also possible to add a backend to an existing Sensu federated cluster. The following example adds the API URL https://sensu-backend-site3.example.com:8080 to the federated cluster named us-west-2a.

sensu_cluster_federation_member { 'https://sensu-backend-site3.example.com:8080 in us-west-2a':
  ensure => 'present',
}

The above can also be defined using the following example:

sensu_cluster_federation_member { 'https://sensu-backend-site3.example.com:8080':
  ensure  => 'present',
  cluster => 'us-west-2a',
}

Large Environment Considerations

If the backend system has a large number of resources it may be necessary to query resources using chunk size added in Sensu Go 5.8.

class { 'sensu::backend':
  sensuctl_chunk_size => 100,
}

Composite Names for Namespaces

All resources that support having a namespace also support a composite name to define the namespace.

For example, the sensu_check with name check-cpu in team1 would be named check-cpu and put into the team1 namespace.

Using composite names is necessary if you wish to have multiple resources with the same name but in different namespaces.

For example to define the same check in two namespaces using the same check name:

sensu_check { 'check-cpu in default':
  ensure        => 'present',
  command       => 'check-cpu.sh -w 75 -c 90',
  interval      => 60,
  subscriptions => ['linux'],
}
sensu_check { 'check-cpu in team1':
  ensure        => 'present',
  command       => 'check-cpu.sh -w 75 -c 90',
  interval      => 60,
  subscriptions => ['linux'],
}

The example above would add the check-cpu check to both the default and team1 namespaces.

NOTE: If you use composite names for namespaces, the namespace property takes precedence.

Installing Bonsai Assets

Install a bonsai asset. The latest version will be installed but not automatically upgraded.

sensu_bonsai_asset { 'sensu/sensu-pagerduty-handler':
  ensure  => 'present',
}

Install specific version of a bonsai asset.

sensu_bonsai_asset { 'sensu/sensu-pagerduty-handler':
  ensure  => 'present',
  version => '1.2.0',
}

Install latest version of a bonsai asset. Puppet will update the Bonsai asset if a new version is released.

sensu_bonsai_asset { 'sensu/sensu-pagerduty-handler':
  ensure  => 'present',
  version => 'latest',
}

Bolt Tasks

The following Bolt tasks are provided by this Module:

sensu::agent_event: Create a Sensu Go agent event via the agent API

Example: bolt task run sensu::agent_event name=bolttest status=1 output=test --targets sensu_agent

sensu::apikey: Manage Sensu Go API keys

Example: bolt task run sensu::apikey action=create username=foobar --targets sensu_backend Example: bolt task run sensu::apikey action=list --targets sensu_backend Example: bolt task run sensu::apikey action=delete key=replace-with-uuid-key --targets sensu_backend

sensu::assets_outdated: Retreive outdated Sensu Go assets

Example: bolt task run sensu::assets_outdated --targets sensu_backend

sensu::check_execute: Execute a Sensu Go check

Example: bolt task run sensu::check_execute check=test subscription=entity:sensu_agent --targets sensu_backend

sensu::event.json: Manage Sensu Go events

Example: bolt task run sensu::event action=resolve entity=sensu_agent check=test --targets sensu_backend

Example: bolt task run sensu::event action=delete entity=sensu_agent check=test --targets sensu_backend

sensu::silenced: Manage Sensu Go silencings

Example: bolt task run sensu::silenced action=create subscription=entity:sensu_agent expire_on_resolve=true --targets sensu_backend

Example: bolt task run sensu::silenced action=delete subscription=entity:sensu_agent --targets sensu_backend

sensu::install_agent: Install Sensu Go agent (Windows and Linux)

Example: bolt task run sensu::install_agent backend=sensu_backend:8081 subscription=linux output=true --targets linux

Example: bolt task run sensu::install_agent backend=sensu_backend:8081 subscription=windows output=true --targets windows

Bolt Inventory

This module provides a plugin to populate Bolt v2 inventory targets.

In order to use the sensu inventory plugin the host executing Bolt must have sensuctl configured, see Basic Sensu CLI.

Example of configuring the Bolt inventory with two groups. The linux group pulls Sensu Go entities in the default namespace with the linux subscription. The linux-qa group is the same as linux group but instead pulling entities from the qa namespace.

version: 2
groups:
  - name: linux
    targets:
      - _plugin: sensu
        namespace: default
        subscription: linux
  - name: linux-qa
    targets:
      - _plugin: sensu
        namespace: qa
        subscription: linux

If your entities have more than one network interface it may be necessary to specify the order of interfaces to search when looking for the IP address:

version: 2
groups:
  - name: linux
    targets:
      - _plugin: sensu
        namespace: default
        subscription: linux
        interface_list:
          - eth0
          - eth1

The following rules for interface matching determine the value used for uri.

  1. If interface_list was defined then find first match
  2. If interface_list not defined and only one interface, use that as ipaddress
  3. If interface_list is not defined and more than one interface, use name

Notes regarding support

This module is built for use with Puppet versions 5 and 6 and the ruby versions associated with those releases. See .travis.yml for an exact matrix of Puppet releases and ruby versions.

This module targets the latest release of the current major Puppet version and the previous major version. Platform support will be removed when a platform is no longer supported by Puppet, Sensu or the platform maintainer has signaled that it is end of life (EOL).

Though Amazon does not announce end of life (EOL) for its releases, it does encourage you to use the latest releases. This module will support the current release and the previous release. Since AWS does not release Vagrant boxes and the intent of those platforms is to run in AWS, we will not maintain Vagrant systems for local development for Amazon Linux.
