Re: Enable notifications for specific contact groups

Thanks, As far as I know all of the contact groups are set up on their respective service/host monitors as we would like them set up.

Enable notifications for specific contact groups

Hello, I'm about ready to enable wide notifications from our XI install, but I'm not sure how to enable them just for the contact groups that need to receive them. Would this be done through the notifications panel, then selecting only the groups I want notified on the right column, then apply a tem...

Change WMI creds for a few hosts

Hello, We recently changed a bunch of passwords on the AD side of our environment, and all of our WMI objects in Nagios XI need the new service account password. I configured these hosts using the WMI wizard in which it asks for the credentials, but I cannot for the life of me find where to change t...

Re: Importing users from Core -> XI migration

Thanks Perry,

I'm looking for this info on the Core instance, the command seems to be for the XI box. Trying to compile a list of users that I need to create on the XI side based on previous logins to the core UI.

Thanks!

Re: Importing users from Core -> XI migration

Thanks Perry, The hthpasswd file only lists the 'nagiosadmin' account, and running that grep command returns a small list but I'm not sure if it's correct as I don't see my user account present. In trying to get into the contacts section on Core, I'm greeted with an error "It appears as though ...

Is there a specific file I can stare/compare on the Core system in order to manually input the user accounts/privs in XI?

Thanks!

Importing users from Core -> XI migration

Hello, We're 99% through the migration from Core to XI and I am wondering if there's a way to import the users and their privileges from the old Core install? We have helpdesk users that need to be able to login and ack/disable alerts, as well as users that log in to view the status of things, in ad...
