Dashboard to Hostgroup

Post by ohlssrog »

Hi.

Have an new XI 5.2.3 there i have import cfg files from an old nagios xi 2012, now i have some hosts groups productions, Acceptans and test.
I wanna create a dashboard that only shows hosts from hostgroup Production Servers and what status these hosts have with warning and critical alarms.

You should be able to use the custom URL dashboard, and then embed the page you're looking for in that.

Can you post the link to the page that currently shows what you're looking for in XI?

From where should take the url adress and paste it into the dashlet? Is where any pdf instruction how this is done.

I cant paste the url from my server, its on a internal network or what adress do you mean?

Do you have a page on your NagiosXI that currently shows the information you're looking for (except not in a dashlet)? That is the address that you'll want to use.

Here's a document explaining more information about dashboards -
