Change all alert settings and make defaults

Post by jkinning »

Is there a way to change all the contacts notification times to use xi_timeperiod_24x7 instead of their <username>_timeperiods? Is there a place I can set the xi_timeperiod_24x7 as the default for all contacts going forward? I am running Nagios XI 2014R2.7 and maintaining contacts and users should be easier as a Nagios admin.

I think I found it under Admin and notification management. Is that the right place?

Yes, with Nagios XI Enterprise Edition, you can deploy a notification timeperiod to many/all users under "Notification Settings Management" page. Alternatively, you can use the "Bulk Modifications" tool to achieve the same goal.
