host_alias visible in status list

Post by [email protected] »

Hi Nagios Support,

Since Version 5.6 of Nagios Xi, the details:status pages display "hostname (hostalias)" where it used to display only the hostname.
I have been looking for a setting to modify this behaviour, but cannot find it.
The "Display host display names" in the user profile does not affect whether the alias is displayed.
How do I get rid of the displayed aliasses behind the hostname in the status-lists without removing the aliasses from the host definition?

Thank you,
Antoine Beerens
