Deadpool Host / Serviec Configuration

[sandeepatil]

In the process of Deadpool, after removing Hosts/Services from deadpool and delete form monitoring configuration, Nagios XI service or any other service will restart ?

[scottwilkerson]

Yes, the services need to be able to Apply Configuration which restarts the nagios process.

Nagios process restart taking time depends on count of Deadpool server right ?

Can we user Deadpool with Nagios API :

It should only take a second or two even on a large system.

If you were to do the same thing through the API, the nagios process still needs to restart for the changes to take affect. This is the case no matter how the changes get there.

Please share API details for Deadpool

Please share API details for Deadpool

There is not a deadpool API endpoint. I was just mentioning that if you interact with the PAI or use the deadpool feature, they both require the configuration to be applied which includes a brief nagios restart

If any one having information about, how to develop API in Nagios XI (Looking API for Deadpool feature), please share detail / URL / references etc.

[scottwilkerson]

I will add to this that under the Help section of Nagios XI there are 2 menu items that have info on making costom developments.

• Custom API Endpoints

• Callback Reference
