Quick Start

Setup Sensu Containers

Start Sensu Backend Container

docker run -v /tmp/sensu:/var/lib/sensu -d --name sensu-backend -p 2380:2380 -p 3000:3000 -p 8080:8080 -p 8081:8081 sensu/sensu:latest sensu-backend start

Note 1: this will mount your hosts /tmp/sensu directory into the container's /var/lib/sensu. Replace the host directory as needed for your environment. I use /tmp/sensu here to make it easy to clean up and get back to an unconfigured state.

Note 2: The sensu-backend service exposes all necessary ports to the local host so that you can interact with it as if it were running as a local service instead of a container.

1. Setup sudoer using visudo on system hosting sensu-go backend

sudo visudo

2. Add sudo directives to allow sensu group to use a command without password

Ex: control nginx service

### Allow sensu group to control nginx service without requiring a password
%sensu ALL=NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/systemctl stop  nginx.service
%sensu ALL=NOPASSWD:/usr/bin/systemctl stop  nginx

    server {

      listen       8080 default_server;
      listen       [::]:8080 default_server;
      server_name  _;
      root         /usr/share/nginx/html;

      # enable ssl encryption
    	ssl on;
    	ssl_certificate /etc/ssl/certs/nginx-proxy-selfsigned.crt;

Very simple staticly defined sensu proxy check using ping command.
source attribute value be used in the check result to replace the client name.
replace <<HOST>> with hostname want

{
  "checks": {
    "ping-<<HOST>>": {
      "command": "ping <<HOST>>",
      "subscribers": [
        "ping-proxy"
