Chapter 7. Reporting and Monitoring

We dealt with many different scenarios and learned a lot of things in the first six chapters. We learned how to deal with users, services, and files. We learned how to write manifests, templates, and functions. We learned how to use these details for security. What we need to learn more about is how to check your hosts and their reports. Without any reporting, we cannot know the statuses of our hosts. We do not know whether our classes are implemented successfully or not, whether everything is as expected, or there are errors. Without these facts, we cannot say that everything is working as expected. In this chapter, we will learn how to check the following:

  • The statuses of hosts from Foreman

  • The report details of hosts from Foreman

  • The statuses of hosts from the terminal

  • The logs from the terminal
