+# Icinga Cube
+
+The Icinga Cube is a tiny but useful [Icinga Web](https://github.com/Icinga/icingaweb2)
+module. It currently shows host and service statistics (total count, health) grouped by
+various custom variables in multiple dimensions.
+
+![Cube - Overview](img/cube_simple.png)
+
+It will be your new best friend in case you are running a large environment and
+want to get a quick answers to questions like:
+
+* Which project uses how many servers per environment at which location/site?
+ * Who occupies most servers?
+ * How many of those are used in production?
+ * Which project has only development and test boxes?
+* Which operating system is used for which project and in which environment?
+ * Do we still have Debian Lenny?
+ * Which projects are to blame for this?
+ * Do we have applications where the operating systems used differ in staging
+ and production?
+* Which project uses which operating system version for which application?
+ * Which projects have homogeneous environments?
+ * Which projects are at a consistent patch level?
+ * How many RHEL 6 variants (6.1, 6.2, 6.3...) do we use?
+ * Who is running the oldest ones? In production?
+* Which projects are still using physical servers in which environment?
+
+For Businessmen - Drill and Slice
+---------------------------------
+
+Get answers to your questions. Quick and fully autonomous, using the cube
+requires no technical skills. Choose amongst all available dimensions and rotate
+the Cube to fit your needs.

+
+In case you are using the [Icinga Director](https://github.com/Icinga/icingaweb2-module-director),
+in addition to the multi-selection/edit feature the cube provides a nice way to
+modify multiple hosts at once.

+## Adding Icinga Package Repository
+
+The recommended way to install Icinga Cube is to use prebuilt packages from our official release repository.
+
+!!! tip
+
+ If you install Icinga Cube on a node that has Icinga 2, Icinga DB or Icinga Web installed via packages,
+ proceed to [installing the Icinga Cube package](#installing-icinga-cube-package) as
+ the repository is already configured.
+
+Here's how to add the official release repository:
+
+<!-- {% if amazon_linux %} -->

+
+## Installing Icinga Cube Package
+
+Use your distribution's package manager to install the `icinga-cube` package as follows:
+
+<!-- {% if amazon_linux %} -->
+<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
+#### Amazon Linux 2
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+```bash
+yum install icinga-cube
+```
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+
+<!-- {% if centos %} -->
+<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
+#### CentOS
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+!!! info
+
+ Note that installing Icinga Cube is only supported on CentOS 7 as CentOS 8 is EOL.
+
+```bash
+yum install icinga-cube
+```
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+
+<!-- {% if debian or ubuntu %} -->
+<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
+#### Debian / Ubuntu
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+```bash
+apt-get install icinga-cube
+```
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+
+<!-- {% if rhel %} -->
+#### RHEL 8 or Later
+
+```bash
+dnf install icinga-cube
+```
+
+#### RHEL 7
+
+```bash
+yum install icinga-cube
+```
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+
+<!-- {% if sles %} -->
+<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
+#### SLES
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+```bash
+zypper install icinga-cube
+```
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+
+<!-- {% else %} --><!-- {# end if not from_source #} -->
+<!-- {% if not icingaDocs %} -->
+## Installing Icinga Cube from Source
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+
+Please see the Icinga Web documentation on
+[how to install modules](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-web-2/latest/doc/08-Modules/#installation) from source.
+Make sure you use `cube` as the module name. The following requirements must also be met.
+
+### Requirements
+
+* PHP (≥7.2)
+* [Icinga Web](https://github.com/Icinga/icingaweb2) (≥2.9)
+* [Icinga DB Web](https://github.com/Icinga/icingadb-web) (≥1.0)
+* [Icinga PHP Library (ipl)](https://github.com/Icinga/icinga-php-library) (≥0.9)
+
+If you are using PostgreSQL, you need at least 9.5 which provides the `ROLLUP` feature.
+<!-- {% endif %} --><!-- {# end else if not from_source #} -->
+
+## Configuring Icinga Cube
+
+<!-- {% if not from_source %} -->
+The Icinga Web PHP framework is required to configure and run the Icinga Cube.
+Package installations of `icinga-cube` already set up the necessary dependencies.
+
+If Icinga Web has not been installed or set up before,
+you have completed the instructions here and can proceed to
+<!-- {% if amazon_linux %} -->
+[install the web server on Amazon Linux](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-web-2/latest/doc/02-Installation/06-Amazon-Linux/#install-the-web-server),
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+<!-- {% if centos %} -->
+[install the web server on CentOS](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-web-2/latest/doc/02-Installation/03-CentOS/#install-the-web-server),
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+<!-- {% if debian %} -->
+[install the web server on Debian](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-web-2/latest/doc/02-Installation/01-Debian/#install-the-web-server),
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+<!-- {% if rhel %} -->
+[install the web server on RHEL](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-web-2/latest/doc/02-Installation/04-RHEL/#install-the-web-server),

+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+<!-- {% if ubuntu %} -->
+[install the web server on Ubuntu](https://icinga.com/docs/icinga-web-2/latest/doc/02-Installation/02-Ubuntu/#install-the-web-server),
+<!-- {% endif %} -->
+which will then take you to the web-based setup wizard, which also allows you to enable the Icinga Cube.
+<!-- {% endif %} --><!-- {# end if not from_source #} -->
+
+For Icinga Web setups already running, log in to Icinga Web with a privileged user and enable the Icinga Cube.
