Add an action through the action component:
go to Admin --> System Extensions --> Manage Components --> Click on Settings icon for Actions Component click on the enabled check box for empty object type,
select Object Type: service, in Host: and Service: enter generic regex /.*/, - unless you have a specific naming convention, in the URL/ Command: enter the following to get your performance data tab: (although you mentioned bandwidth):

Code: Select all

http://192.168.55.66/nagiosxi/includes/components/xicore/status.php?show=hostdetail&host=%host%#tab-perfgraphs
in the Action Text: display perfdata, click Apply settings.

You should see the display perfdata in the host status detail -Quick Actions. This serves as an example, because the performance graphs tab is already there. I used a %host% macro in the above URL example, and included the #tab-perfgraphs which I found by hovering over the perf data tab.

Dear cmerchant

me looking for different NOTES/ACTION URL for each services. Please view the attached.

When from OPERATION CENTER (NOCscreen) we will see the Alert, (in general link down, Status Alert), when our monitoring staff will click Status (Service of that Host), it will open full detail of the services, here I want these two URL to be display under the Quick Actions

Please follow cmerchant's steps. Adding to the notes field or url field will not have the desired effect. As several people have mentioned, these are component settings that will be global without further interaction provided you follow apporpiate steps mentioned.

Dear Expert

Its your wish to continue this Post or close it. As me looking Bandwidth along with Status and suggestion came from you to use Action URL, goal is diverted how to use Action URL/Notes URL.

As you are Expert and working in Nagios for years, don't expect much for new user same skill or understanding he has as you.

Now my topic diverted : HOW TO USE ACTION URL / NOTES URL in NagiosXI.

If I can see Extra Action / Extra Notes , NOTES (of Misc Setting) in Nagios, how/where to see in NagiosXI.

We use 24x7 OPERATION CENTER as it give the Alert what we want, Host Down, Service Down, delay, High Bandwidth....so when Service goes Down, clicking on the STATUS, will give more info with some click, hope Action URL , Notes URL give some relief if used properly by us and sure without your guide cannot do.

Me trying hard (trial and error), googleing, reached near to use but not achieved 100%

Regards

At this time, there is no "direct" link to the action/notes URL in XI that you can use.
In Nagios Core, you can see icons, placed next to a host/service when you define action/notes url, but these icons don't show up in XI.

It's a good "feature request" candidate though, and we will post one internally.
For now, to access the action/notes url, you will need to use a couple of extra clicks.

Click on the host/service->Advanced->See this host/service in Nagios Core->click on the "Extra Actions" or "Extra Notes".

Dear lmiltchev

Thanks for considering as a feature to add in XI.

I think can be add under the Quick Actions

but its prepending with http://192.168.55.66/nagiosxi/includes/ ... oscore/ui/

there should be some way to prepend or not (its upto user choice)

You can close the Post but please remember my original request was to see the Bandwidth along with Status

Regards
