We need to review the VMs on our loadbalancer and add checks in CheckMK for ACME-generate certs. This follows work done in #1211 to add checks for VMs with manually generated certs.
Level of urgency
High
Moderate
Low
Why is this maintenance needed?
If we can monitor certificate expirations, we will not be "surprised" if any errors in autorenewal (or manual renewal) occur. This adds robustness to our monitoring system.
Acceptance criteria
Make a list of TLS certs on load-balanced machines
For ACME generated certs in the list above, create a different check with additional rules criteria (e.g. check that chron jobs run)
In CheckMK HTTP service check for the above machines, set Age: Warning to at or below to 4 days and Critical at or below to 1 day.
Implementation notes, if any
Depending on how many certs there are in the list above, we should think about whether there is a more streamlined way to add these checks (e.g. can CheckMK Support help us with this)?
We use Active Checks
Service must be assigned to a host
Search HTTP
Select Check HTTP Service
Create a new rule
We don't need rule properties
web page name must match service name
overwrite the name of the host (add virtual host - lib-adc?)
Use SSL with autonegotiation
Attach this service to host and select localhost
Part II
Check for a string on the webpage
Copy string from destination page
Fixed string in content
Part III
Clone a HTTP rule above
Check mode of the role and Check Certificate Age
Added a new name to cloned rule
Modify the cert check from the default 60 seconds
Search interval in the Setup Search.
Create a new Rule for how frequent we check for certs
