Read-only users to perform a force immediate check

Post by nms »

Hi,

is it possible to setup a user with read-only check and is able to perform a force immediate check in the quick actions?

i had experimented with the user by finally giving all options but sticking to the authorization level as "user". Still i could not see the available actions.

Rgds,

Matthew

this kind of defeats the purpose of a read only account. ;) further permissions other than just 'user' need to be added though. IIRC, it's 'can control all objects' that allows the permission for this.

this article should help further explain - https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... Rights.pdf

For now, @tacolover101 is correct. More granularity is planned in the future: https://www.nagios.com/roadmaps/
