Run more than one wizard for a host / Time issue

Post by tercat »

Hi,

I'm doing some tests with NagiosXI.

I want to run more than one wizard to only one host. Is it possible?
Also how can I apply a template (with its checks) to an already defined host?

Other thing that I've found is a wrong time on the web interface. I get wrong times in the check service tables but in the web dashlets the time is correct...(could be a database issue?)

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Carlos

Yes you can run more than one wizard on the same host, as long as it has the exact same hostname it will combine them.

As for adding
templates (with its checks) to an already defined host?
This would be adding a service to a host (which you can add a template to), this can be done in Configure -> CCM -> Services

If you have many machines that need the same services, you can create a service how you like, and add multiple hosts to the service. All of the hosts will have that service then.

Now, for the time issue, I am guessing that your system tim/timezone or php timezone has not been set.
Go to Admin -> System Profile
and look at the Date/Time section

If these don't match there is a post here
http://support.nagios.com/forum/viewtop ... 26&p=24962
that goes over this pretty well, and you also need to set the timezone in the /etc/php.ini, instructions are here

Thank you so much.
It was an incorrect configuration in the php.ini.

Solved!

Thanks again.

Hi,

Thanks for the info.
The time issue has been solved also. It was a misconfiguration of the php.ini.

Thank you so much!
