Deactivating server from site license
I'm going to be decommissioning 2 of the servers that are currently active in my site license. What's the proper procedure for eliminating those servers from my license so that if/when we decide to stand up new servers we can re-use the existing seats in the site license?

When an XI license expires...
What exactly gets disabled when a Nagios XI license expires? Specifically, does the API become unavailable?

Removing a host free variable via the API
Just thought I'd share a tip, I ran across a need to remove a free variable from a host via the API. I wasn't able to find a good way to do so directly using commands in the API without simply replacing the host. So that's what I did. In the scripting that we use for interfacing our ChatOps environm...

API Roadmap
Is there a roadmap for the Nagios REST API? I've got a few requests to make but don't want to waste anyone's time with things already in progress.

Re: Adding existing services to host via REST API
So to start off, I did read this post: https://support.nagios.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=36401 But it seems to be for creating new services and adding them to a host. I have a number of existing services (Windows C: Drive utilization for example), and I want to automate adding hosts to that ...

Re: Modifying a host via the REST API
In our ongoing quest to use the rest API to automate the provisioning of Nagios XI I have another question: I understand how to add a host via the API, and I know how to delete a host via the API, but how does one *modify* a host? What if I want to use the API to add or remove a hostgroup from an e...

Creating user via API with delayed apply config
A little background: I've got a total of six (6) Nagios servers, five (5) of which are active hosts and the final host is a passive host for displaying the results from the active hosts (without the perfdata.) The passive server has just shy of 35000 passive services configured spread across just sh...

Re: Further API functions
Regarding the documentation, have you seen the Help > Custom API Endpoints section in XI? It goes over how to write a custom endpoint, but if you'd like to see more info, what specifically would be helpful? i.e. video series, more examples, deeper dive, etc. Would something like this (which is for ...

Re: Inconsistent NRDP performance
I think I found something, but I'm not sure what the heck to make of it. I happened to spot these lines in my nagios.log: [1521057945] Warning: The results of service 'Datastore - Usage' on host 'some_host_name' are stale by 0d 0h 0m 32s (threshold=0d 0h 25m 0s). I'm forcing an immediate check of th...
