Generating Availability reports divided by Hostgroup

Post by nagiosEngie »

Hello,

I am trying to generate Availability Reports on Hostgroups that contain other hostgroups.

The resulting report is generated as if all hosts are part of one hostgroup and dose not divide them in the parent hostsgroups.

HOSTGROUP1---HOSTGROUP-RED (containing 2 REDHOSTS)
---HOSTGROUP-GREEN (containing 2 GREENHOSTS)
---HOSTGROUP-BLUE (containing 2 BLUEHOSTS)

The report will show all hosts as part of HOSTGROUP1 and will not devide stats for the sub hostgroups.

Is this possible?

ThanKs

The reports does not show "sub-hostgroups" but you can run seperate report that contains all of the hosts in :

HOSTGROUP1
HOSTGROUP-RED
HOSTGROUP-GREEN
HOSTGROUP-BLUE

Hi Scott,
this is not very practical because the customer will receive a CSV file for every report and then he will have to put all together again in one file separating the different hostgroups.

So I guess there is no way of customizing the report (I searched, but couldn't find any documents giving instructions on how to modify/customize the reports).
Thanks
Sandro

Hi is it possible to extract the availability data from the rrd files?
If yes can you give me an example of the command?

Thanks

Sorry, RRD files do not contain availability data, only the values for the metric at each time interval.
