Hi Guys Hope your all well
i was wondering how you configure the map, currently all of my hosts are represented on the same "network" i monitor several networks over site to site VPN is there away to display these networks correctly inside nagios to represent the actual setup
any information would be greatly
Configure the Map
Re: Configure the Map
Ensure you use the 'parent' directive on your host definitions this will have two benefits:
1. Your map will draw correctly.
2. When a router goes down you won't get an alert for every single host at that site, this is perhaps the more important of the two .
If you want to extend your pretty picture capabilities NagVis is a really awesome utility for making custom maps.

Re: Configure the Map
Hi JSMurphy
i have taken a look at nagvis and like the look of it and want to use the plugin one question i have is that it wants me to use check_mk which isnt a problem but is this something that i should maybe look to use through out my nagios monitoring ?

Re: Configure the Map
that check_mk is sort the equivalent of check_nt or check_nrpe for the mk client instead of nsclient... I think the only reason you would need to use check_mk is if you don't have the NDOUtils database installed. Either way is a valid set up... if you plan to use check_mk then using it through out your environment for nagios would make more sense
Re: Configure the Map
Woo Hoo finally got it working
little bit of a miss understanding at first but now NDO2DB and nagvis are working as expected
