salt.states.serverdensity_device

Monitor Server with Server Density

New in version 2014.7.0.

Server Density Is a hosted monitoring service.

Warning

This state module is beta. It might be changed later to include more or less automation.

Note

This state module requires a pillar for authentication with Server Density:

serverdensity:
  api_token: "b97da80a41c4f61bff05975ee51eb1aa"
  account_url: "https://your-account.serverdensity.io"

Note

Although Server Density allows duplicate device names in its database, this module will raise an exception if you try monitoring devices with the same name.

Example:

'server_name':
  serverdensity_device.monitored
salt.states.serverdensity_device.monitored(name, group=None, salt_name=True, salt_params=True, **params)
