Puppet 6 removed native Nagios provider

[comport3]

Hi All,

We are testing some Nagios stuff on Puppet 6 and it seems all the previously native functionality was completely removed.

Is it available to be re-added via a Module? If not, why was it removed - technical issues, etc??

Example to reproduce:

(on server to be monitored, exporting it's 'nagios_host' resource)

  @@nagios_host { $::fqdn :

    tag        => "nagios-${lookup('nagios_server')}",

    ensure     => present,

    address     => $facts['networking.ip'],

    use        => 'wan-host',

    hostgroups => (lookup('nagios_hostgroups', {merge => deep})).join(','),

    target     => "/etc/nagios3/conf.d/puppet.d/host_${::fqdn}.cfg",

  }

(on monitoring server collecting this exported resource:

Error: Could not retrieve catalog from remote server: Error 500 on SERVER: Server Error: Evaluation Error: Error while evaluating a Resource Statement, Unknown resource type: 'nagios_host'

As part of the refactoring of the puppet code base, nagios resources were moved into their own module, nagios_core. Installing that module should resolve your error.
