Installation

• Extract this codebase in your nagios web directory's document root ( in this example is /usr/local/nagios/share ). This will extract the files in a opcfg subdirectory.

 [root@localhost]# tar -xvzf opcfg-{VERSION}.tar.gz -C /usr/local/nagios/share  

• Create a symlink or copy of your nagios's icon logo's directory to the opcfg's base directory with the name of logos.

 [root@localhost ]# cd /usr/local/nagios/share/opcfg
 [root@localhost opcfg]# ln -sf /usr/local/nagios/share/images/logos .

• Create a database for opcfg in MySQL with select,insert,drop,empty privileges. Import the SQL data contained in sqldata/fruity-mysql.sql

 [root@localhost opcfg]# cd sqldata
 [root@localhost sqldata]# mysql -f -u {user} -p < opcfg.sql
 Enter password: {password}  

• Configure the config.inc file in opcfg's includes directory. Notes on what each parameter is specified in the file.
• Adjust nagios and opcfg's permission to allow web server group ( in this example is apache ) to write there.

 [root@localhost]# chow -R apache.apache /usr/local/nagios/share/opcfg
 [root@localhost]# chown -R .apache /usr/local/nagios/etc
 [root@localhost]# chown -R .apache /usr/local/nagios/libexec
 [root@localhost]# chmod -R g+w /usr/local/nagios/etc
 [root@localhost]# chmod -R g+w /usr/local/nagios/libexec

• Point your web browser to /nagios/opcfg/ on your webserver to start OpCfg.

Todo

• Support for Nagios 3.x advanced timeperiods
• Support for groups ( hostgroups and servicegroups ) to have other groups as members
