Hi, It is not about the functionality, which is fine. It is about the message itself. CRITICAL: Query result 1008 was higher than query critical threshold 2000:.|query_duration=0.0009s;; 'computed0'=1008;2000: From a plugin perspective the message is okay, the value 1008 is higher than 2000: (and fo...

Sorry for the delay. A custom message could be very helpful if you send the message to end user, e. g. you can write them a message what do to do, like "10 items are in the machine, please remove them". Or if you have a lower threshold using --querycritical 100:, you will get a message wit...

Of course in a clean installation it will work, but for example in my case I worked on the check_mssql and as I copied the file as root to this libexec directory the permissions have changed. If you always work with the web interface I don't expect any problems, but if you work on the system you mig...

I applied the update and I think I found another problem with the update service. If the file /usr/local/nagios/libexec/ is not writeable by the webserver then itnot be replaced, which is okay.

Can you tell us something about the new API endpoints?
I' d like to see an API to create a host and assign a template to it. The same for services.

The latest Nagios XI 5.4.3 still includes the old package nagiosxi/subcomponents/nrpe/nrpe-2.15.tar.gz. 8 Sep 2016 Nagios released version 3.0.1 https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/nrpe/releases . After about 8 months this version should be seen as a stable version. I would be happy to see NRPE 3.0...

Of course hostgroups and templates will work, too. At the end this monitoring as code will provide you slightly more flexibility and dynamic, e. g. it is also possible to change the the threshold based on certain rules. { check_command = "load” host_name = ”backup.abc.com” vars.load_warning = {...

Hi, you might know Icinga2 and the Monitoring as Code approach. I know with hostgroups you can do some kind of dynamic check assignment, but it would be nice to have more flexible options. In Icinga2 you can do things like assign where match("*has gold support 24x7*", service.notes) &&...
