Re: changing the area chart for CPU usage

Thanks again for the quick responses from you and your team. I've looked over the link at http://docs.pnp4nagios.org/pnp-0.4/tpl_custom (scottwilkerson linked it a few days earlier too), and checked out the various templates under the Admin -> Graph Templates link. I still would like to know: 1) How...

Re: changing the area chart for CPU usage

Thanks all for the help so far, I'll take a look at those links. It's going to take me a little bit to start looking within the GUI to make changes like this when I've been doing so much from the command line in Core for so long. :D I have a question on graphing templates. How can I tell what graphi...

Re: changing the area chart for CPU usage

I will share my humble script on the Exchange. I've been using Nagios Core for a while (7-ish years), and this is my first foray into the world of XI. So I'm having a bit of trouble discerning what's the same, and what's different between the two. Is there any XI documentation in general that addres...

Re: changing the area chart for CPU usage

Thanks Scott, that pnp document link looks promising. Another thing that I didn't mention is that I'd like to explore setting the y axis scale (%CPU) to a constant 100%. I suspect I may run into problems because I think some multi-core systems will report >100% usage when the sum of the CPU% usage f...

changing the area chart for CPU usage

Greetings, I've been asked to provide reports showing how much a group of OS X computers are being used. Aside from debating how to actually measure such things, the requestor agreed that simple CPU usage broken down into user and system percentages would be acceptable. I worked my way through weird...

Re: Changing the default values on config wizards

I'd like to add a second voice to this feature request. Not allowing the defaults to be changed introduces another missed chance for uniformity for any XI customers who want something different. Sure, we can add yet another step to our internal documented procedure to change the defaults when adding...

Re: Watching AD groups with XI

Thanks for the tip slansing. I should have mentioned that I searched the Exchange before posting, although I searched for Active Directory, and not LDAP as you suggested. Many of the results from either query were concerned with authentication for the Nagios UI, and not actually watching groups for ...

Watching AD groups with XI

I have a request to use Nagios XI to watch a subset of Active Directory groups for changes (adds, deletions. modifications, etc.). Is there a plugin that works with NRPE, NSClient++, or other method that can be used to do this? I'm a linux admin with little to no windows scripting experience, and I'...

Re: https rewrite problems

Yes. The file /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/cmdsubsys.log never gets created no matter how many times I attept to apply a configuration from the web UI. I ran touch /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/cmdsubsys.log as the user nagios just to verify permissions and the like. To be absolutely sure, I also restarted the...
