quick search changed results

Post by binaryred »

Hi,

I've just upgraded from 4.0.6 to 4.2.2 and noticed that when I do a quick search for multiple hosts, I get all of my hosts that I expect, but only the host detail, not all the service details as it used to be. If I search for just one host, I get the service details.

It seems this is expected, from the release notes for 4.2.2:

Quick search doesn’t show hosts without services (service status detail page)

But I wonder why? Clutter? I used to use this often to search for a couple machines and to look at the service details of those machines. I have lots of host/service groups, but don't want to have to create more just for this to work, not to mention, sometimes it's a one off and doesn't warrant a group.

Is this something that could be changed with a configuration? Or better yet, what if you go to one of the host summary/detail pages, and when you do a quick search you get hsot results, but if you're on the services pages and do a quick search you get the services of the hosts you're looking for?

Thanks,
Jason

I have created a feature request at https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/na ... issues/293. Please feel free to add additional details either here or on the github issue.

Since the feature request is submitted and can be tracked on github, is it ok to go ahead and close this thread? We can leave this open if you prefer not to have a github account. Thanks!

This should be fixed in 'maint' branch because of issue https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/na ... /issues/96 via commit https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/na ... b9b21be737

Reopen https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/na ... issues/293 if that doesn't fix the problem.
