Howdy, If I use the Disable notifications for all services on this host option, I get a checkbox that allows me to also disable notifications for the Host itself. However, if I use the Schedule downtime for all services on this host option, I do not get the same checkbox. And if I choose Schedule do...

Howdy, We have Nagios Core 4.3.2 and no one likes having to go edit the config files manually any time we want to change something. Some people want to completely replace Nagios with something else but I want to see if we can just make our current Nagios easier to use so we don't have to start over....

Hi, We just installed Nagios XI to test it out. I was able to successfully setup a single host using the WMI Wizard which is nice. Teh next step is I'd like Nagios to scan an IP range and find all the hosts and use the same WMI settings for all of them so I don't have to set them up manually. I went...

I'm assuming that because the notifications were off when it first had the problem it is now holding onto ...

So I see I can do a Scheduled Downtime for a Host Group. Is there an easy way to just create a HostGroup that contains All the hosts? I tried doing a: define hostgroup { hostgroup_name AllHosts members * (also tried hostgroup_members) } But after I did a restart the group didn't show up so not sure ...

When we do patching or other system maintenance, we generally go into Nagios and Disable all notifications from the Process Info page. System | Process Info| Disable Notifications However, we've had times in the past where someone has forgotten to go back in and turn notifications back on when they ...

I've passed those patches to the guy on my team who's looking into this. As for the ID logging on, any of us can remote into the DC with our own IDs and the problem goes away. It's not related to any specific user.

Thanks
