Reports Acknowledgements and Disabling notifications

Post by emartine »

I know there is a way to create a report of the people who Acknowledged a service but that is only in PDF form. Is there a way to get that form into .csv or excel format?

Also Is there a way to get a report of the people who diabled notifications for a server or service?

This information is available in XI > Admin > Audit Log in both PDF and CSV formats.

That was a two part question

1) I know there is a way to create a report of the people who Acknowledged a service but that is only in PDF form. Is there a way to get that form into .csv or excel format?

2)Also Is there a way to get a report of the people who diabled notifications for a server or service?
Maybe I should be more specific. I need an automatic report that can be sent out daily and not have to be done manually and preferred in CSV format filtering out everything except for the content I need.
Right now I am seeing a manual report and also includes everything from people logging in and executing commands not just folks disabling notifications.

1) Yes, please see my first response. What version are you running?

2) There is no built in method to automatically generate that report. You can create a script to login, download and act upon the file. I can submit that as a feature request if you like. We also offer custom development for a fee if you are interested.

1) Currently running Nagios XI 2014R2.6 (but will be upgrading soon) Our test environment is currently at Nagios XI 5.3.2 and I do see the CSV but not an automatic way to set... Which I would need to filter out all the extra stuff every time and I am looking for a consistant daily report. Is it possible to do this at the commandline ? Are there any docs available with that information? I just run a cronjob and have it emailed out.

2) I would appreciate the feature request. XI reporting is nice but its been kinda lackluster.

I have created FR 10065 for this. Please note the request in Feature Request, ie there is no guarantee if or when this will be implemented. You can inquire here or through a ticket on the FR status.

Sure, it can be done from the CLI. wget with the proper credentials along with a csv and some sed(1), awk(1), sort(1), split(1) and/or cut(1) should be able to parse whatever you need and deliverable with mailx(1). However that is outside of the scope of support.
