uclalib_role_netdata

Ansible role to install the Netdata host monitoring system on a RHEL system.

Requirements

This role requires a RHEL system with Apache HTTPD already installed/configured.

It will create an additional Apache virtual host file to access the Netdata interface on non-standard port.

After executing this role, you should be able to access the Netdata web ui at https://server_shortname.library.ucla.edu:30462

httpd_port - defines the Apache httpd listening port that will proxy to Netdata (default set to 30462)
server_shortname - defines the apache server hostname netdata will answer on (e.g. if the FQDN is netdata-server.library.ucla.edu, the server_shortname is netdata-server)
netdata_ssl_config - defines if the apache virtual host should use HTTPS (default set to yes)
netdata_restrict_access - defines if the access to netdata should be restricted via firewalld (default set to yes)
netdata_config_path - defines location of main netdata configuration file (default set to /etc/netdata/netdata.conf)
netdata_disable_alerts - Boolean flag to disable all netdata alerts (default set to True)

Including an example of how to use your role (for instance, with variables passed in as parameters) is always nice for users too:

- name: uclalib_netdata.yml
  become: yes
  become_method: sudo
  hosts: all

  roles:
    - { role: uclalib_role_netdata }
