Change host suffix in bulk?

Post by tmattingly »

Hello and happy Monday!

Is there a way to, in mass bulk, change the host suffix name's in Nagios XI (running 5.3.3)?

For example, all of my monitored hosts are of the format hostxxx.abc.yahoo.com and I want to change it to hostxxx.xyz.stormysea.com in mass bulk. How can I accomplish that?

Thanks,

Tom
(btw, you folks are awesome on your responses for the requests I have put in)

Thanks!

The bulk renaming tool is what you'll use. Configure -> Core Config Manager > Bulk Renaming Tool:

--basically follow the prompts from there

*Note that this feature is in the Enterprise Edition of XI only
