Re: [Nagios-devel] External Data in DB other than My & P SQL

Post by Guest »

I can neither confirm nor deny this. :-) I don't plan on adding
native DB support of any kind for object definitions, as I don't
believe the benefits outweigh the problems that will occur when
fields are added or changed in object definitions. I would use an
script to generate a config file from the DB as Subhendu suggested.
