<h4>Notes</h4>
<p>This module works on Debian and Ubuntu only and requires <code>apt-add-repository</code> be available on destination server. To ensure this package is available use the <code>apt</code> module and install the <code>python-software-properties</code> package before using this module.</p>
<p>A bug in <code>apt-add-repository</code> always adds <code>deb</code> and <code>deb-src</code> types for repositories (see the issue on Launchpad <a href='https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/987264'>https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/987264</a>), if a repo doesn't have source information (eg MongoDB repo from 10gen) the system will fail while updating repositories.</p>

Perform common tasks in Nagios related to downtime and notifications. The ``nagios`` module has two basic functions: scheduling downtime and toggling alerts for services or hosts.
All actions require the ``host`` parameter to be given explicitly. In playbooks you can use the ``$inventory_hostname`` variable to refer to the host the playbook is currently running on.
You can specify multiple services at once by separating them with commas, .e.g., ``services=httpd,nfs,puppet``.
When specifying what service to handle there is a special service value, *host*, which will handle alerts/downtime for the *host itself*, e.g., ``service=host``. This keyword may not be given with other services at the same time. *Setting alerts/downtime for a host does not affect alerts/downtime for any of the services running on it.*
When using the ``nagios`` module you will need to specify your nagios server using the ``delegate_to`` parameter.

.. note::
The **silence** and **unsilence** actions have no additional
parameters that may be used with them.
All actions require the **host** parameter to be given explicitly. In
playbooks you can use the ``$inventory_hostname`` variable to refer to
the host the playbook is currently running on.
You can specify multiple services at once by separating them with
commas, .e.g., ``services=httpd,nfs,puppet``.
When specifying what service to handle there is a special service value,
**host**, which will handle alerts/downtime for the **host itself**,
e.g., ``service=host``. This keyword may *not* be given with other
services at the same time. *Handling alerts/downtime for a host does
not affect alerts/downtime for any of the services running on it.*
Examples from :doc:`playbooks`::
---
- hosts: webservers
user: root
tasks:
- name: set 30 minutes of apache downtime
action: nagios action=downtime minutes=30 service=httpd host=$inventory_hostname
delegate_to: nagios.example.com
- name: schedule an hour of HOST downtime
action: nagios action=downtime minutes=60 service=host host=$inventory_hostname
delegate_to: nagios.example.com
# Use the default of 30 minutes
# Schedule downtime for three services at once
- name: schedule downtime for a few services
action: nagios action=downtime services=frob,foobar,qeuz host=$inventory_hostname
delegate_to: nagios.example.com
- name: enable SMART disk alerts
action: nagios action=enable_alerts service=smart host=$inventory_hostname
delegate_to: nagios.example.com
# you can disable multiple at once
- name: disable httpd alerts
action: nagios action=disable_alerts service=httpd,nfs host=$inventory_hostname
delegate_to: nagios.example.com
# host alerts must be disabled as a seperate action
- name: disable HOST alerts
action: nagios action=disable_alerts service=host host=$inventory_hostname
delegate_to: nagios.example.com
- name: silence ALL alerts
action: nagios action=silence host=$inventory_hostname
delegate_to: nagios.example.com
- name: unsilence all alerts
action: nagios action=unsilence host=$inventory_hostname
delegate_to: nagios.example.com
**Troubleshooting Tips**
The nagios module may not operate for you out of the box. The most
likely problem is with your **cmdfile** permissions/paths. You will
receive this error if that is the case::
{"msg": "unable to write to nagios command file", "failed": true, "cmdfile": "/var/spool/nagios/cmd/nagios.cmd"}
Steps to correct this:
1. Ensure you are running the nagios module as a user who has
**write** permissions to the **cmdfile**.
2. Ensure you have **cmdfile** set correctly.

Ohai data is a bit more verbose and nested than facter.
Requires that 'ohai' be installed on the remote end. Similar to the ``facter`` module, this runs the *ohai* discovery program (http://wiki.opscode.com/display/chef/Ohai) on the remote host and returns JSON inventory data. *Ohai* data is a bit more verbose and nested than *facter*.

Pauses playbook execution for a set amount of time, or until a prompt is acknowledged. All parameters are optional. The default behavior is to pause with a prompt.
You can use ``ctrl+c`` if you wish to advance a pause earlier than it is set to expire or if you need to abort a playbook run entirely. To continue early: press ``ctrl+c`` and then ``c``. To abort a playbook: press ``ctrl+c`` and then ``a``.
The pause module integrates into async/parallelized playbooks without any special considerations (see also: Rolling Updates). When using pauses with the ``serial`` playbook parameter (as in rolling updates) you are only prompted once for the current group of hosts.
