Bulk Modification of Host Groups on Hosts not applied

Post by TBT »

When doing a Bulk Modification of a Host Group on several Hosts, if one of the selected Hosts already has the Host Group applied, the change does not take affect on remainder of Hosts. There is no indication of which Host has the Host Group either. Removing the Host which has the Host Group already applied from the Bulk Modification will successfully complete. Can somebody please confirm this behavior, or am I doing something wrong?

1. In CCM select the Bulk Modification Tool: Click Add a Host Group(s) to Hosts
2. Select a Host Group
3. Select several Hosts (One of which already has the Host Group selected above)
4. Save Changes
5. Apply Config

If this is the case, it would be great to display which Hosts already have the modification, with the option to remove and save changes to be applied.

Update: The bug will be fixed in Nagios XI 5.4.4. FYI, I tested the bug fix in our dev revision. Adding hostgroups to multiple hosts via the Bulk Mod tool works as expected when the hostgroup has been already added to one of the hosts.
