Run the PowerShell Module as Windows Service
|
|
=====================================
|
|
|
|
Requirements
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
As PowerShell Scripts / Modules can not be installed directly as Windows Service, we will require a little assistance here.
|
|
|
|
In order to make this work, you will require the Icinga Windows Service which can be downloaded directly from the [GitHub Repository](https://github.com/LordHepipud/icinga-windows-service).
|
|
|
|
Install the Service
|
|
--------------
|
|
|
|
At first you will require the Service Binary from the [Icinga Windows Service GitHub Repository](https://github.com/LordHepipud/icinga-windows-service) and copy the binary locally to your system. A recommended path would be your Program Files / Program Files (x86) directory.
|
|
|
|
Any other custom location is fully supported, has to be however accessable from the Windows Service Environment.
|
|
|
|
Once you have found a location, the PowerShell Module will assist you with setting up the service itself. In this documentation we will assume the path you have chosen to copy the binary to is
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
C:\Program Files\Icinga Windows Service
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
and the binary name is
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
icinga-service.exe
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Now lets install the service with the help of the PowerShell Module:
|
|
|
|
```powershell
|
|
New-Icinga-Service -IcingaServicePath 'C:\Program Files\Icinga Windows Service\icinga-service.exe'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You can validate if the service has been installed properly by using the Get Service Cmdlet:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
Get-Icinga-Service
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Of course there are more Cmdlets available, making the management of this Icinga Service alot easier, which should be self explaining:
|
|
|
|
* Start-Icinga-Service
|
|
* Stop-Icinga-Service
|
|
* Restart-Icinga-Service
|
|
* Remove-Icinga-Service
|
|
|
|
**Note:** If you run the PowerShell Module as service, both the Daemon and Checker component will be started. To prevent external access to the Daemon, you should ensure to block port **5891** on this host. |
