Nagios Support Forum

Hi!!

I need to rename a host file without losing its historical data, obviously that nagios see the rename as a new file and it remove all the historical data about the old one.

Can you please help me ? it's really a sensitive situation

- I just started to work by nagios so I have some issues shows-up.
- We have in our envirement a printer has Ipv6, but nagios basically supervise hosts on Ipv4, I searched for a solution but non of them work for me.
Can you please help me?

Hi!

I work on project needs to get data from nagios by NDOutils, but i want it to put data on two dbs, one in local machine in mysqlDB and the other in Firebase, is out of my machine,

So is that possible by NDOutils ?

Hi!

How can I minimise the time of Ndoutils to store in db ?

and another question :

I don't need all those tables that Ndoutils create, so How can choose just the tables I need befor install ndoutils (by modify some scripts or idk) ?

- If I do the script like a plugin then I need to add it to one of the hosts, so nagios can execute the script. But I don't want the user to see the service, I just want it to be executed in the background!!.

I have a php script can read status.dat file and return data at json format in data.json file.
So how can I make nagios core execute a php script in background like the plugins?

Thank you for response.
Yeah, JSON API more easy than ndoutils, I found this php script https://github.com/lizell/php-nagios-js ... usJson.php it's useful.

I want to create a special front-end for nagios by using some framework, but I need the data it collects nagios as a back-end . So, How I can do that? (I found something like using ndoutils and JSON , but I'm not sure, can you propose for me the best solution if you know? ) Thank you in advance.
