Metrics component does not display metrics from passive

[tomerazran]

Hello,

We are using the latest NagiosXI.
We configured Nagios to get checks passivly from NRDS agents.
The problem is that we cannot see the reports on the Metrics components.

Any idea?

Tomer.

Metrics component looks at service/command names, and at arguments. They need to be very "generic" for the lack of better term.
Many of the passive checks wouldn't show up in the Metrics component. Some of them will. For example, I can see "Disk Usage" and "Load" NRDS checks in my Metrics component.

How are these checks defined? Can you show us an example?
