## What is Alertman?

Alertman puts your Icinga 2 monitoring in your pocket. It talks directly to the Icinga 2 REST API, so the only thing your servers need is an API user.

SEE WHAT MATTERS
• Overview of all hosts and services, split into handled and unhandled problems
• Problems sorted by severity, with search and state filters
• Host and service details: plugin output, performance data with thresholds, check details, comments, downtimes, groups, notes and action links, and custom variables with secrets masked
• A live event stream of state changes, acknowledgements, comments and downtimes

ACT ON IT
• Acknowledge problems: sticky, with notification and an optional expiry
• Schedule downtime: fixed or flexible, for a host and all its services, including child hosts
• Add and remove comments, check now or reschedule a check
• Send custom notifications and submit passive check results
• Turn active checks, notifications, event handlers, flap detection and performance data on or off, per host or service or globally
• Long-press to select several problems and act on all of them at once

MADE FOR REAL SETUPS
• Several Icinga servers side by side
• Works with Icinga's own certificate authority: review the server's certificate once and Alertman trusts exactly that certificate
• Works without the filter-expression permission that newer Icinga versions enforce
• Passwords stay in the device's secure storage
• Optional background checks with local notifications for new problems. The system decides when these run, so don't use them as your only on-call alerting.

REQUIREMENTS
Icinga 2.11 or newer with the REST API enabled, and an ApiUser. Alertman does not use Icinga Web, IDO or Icinga DB, so database-backed history views are not available.

No account, no tracking, no ads. Alertman connects only to the servers you add.

Alertman is an independent app and is not affiliated with the Icinga project.
