Status Info Dashlet now available

Post by Box293 »

Hello fellow Nagios XI users. I have created a Dashlet called the Status Info Dashlet that is available for download from the Nagios Exchange.

This Dashlet allows you to select a service definition and display the current status info as a Dashlet.

For example, you want to watch the free space check on a particular server (it's been fluctuating recently for no reason).

This Dashlet allows you to take the current output for the free space check and display that in nice big numbers on your own dashboard!

* Tested on Nagios XI 2011R2.4

2013-01-20
* Tested on Nagios XI 2012R1.4
* Major code overhaul
* Dashlet refresh functionality implemented
* You choose how often the dashlet will refresh
* For Dashlets that were created BEFORE refresh functionality was introduced, a default refresh interval of 7 minutes will be used
* Dashlets that were created BEFORE this version will continue to work
* Changed Current State default Text Color from Gray to Black
* Changed Current State default Text Size from X Small to Small
* Removing 'UP - ' did not work in Preview - fixed
* Removing 'DOWN - ' did not work after Dashlet was added - fixed

Any questions / suggestions / requests are always welcome.
