best practice with templates and inheritance

[pspagnola]

this is all great info. thank you! I am going to go check the exchange for the object viewer.

I may have already asked this, but: How do you guys typically attach templates for different alerting on different groups?

If I have 9 hosts: 3 critical, 3 normal, and 3 non-production.
recipients want email and SMS for critical hosts.
recipients want email only for normal hosts.
recipients want email only when down over 2 hours for non-production hosts.

would I use escalation rules, or host groups with different templates attached, or bulk modify 3 hosts at a time to attach different templates?

I installed and uninstalled the "View object configuration" component. It caused the host info page not to load for any hosts, main XI GUI not CCM GUI.

Hello,

Are you getting any error messages or just nothing showing? As far as I can tell, the component is just parsing the status data provided by core and should not break your system.

What does the database log look like?

Code: Select all

tail -n 25 /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log

Also, tail the Apache log while you load the page and post the results. Thanks

Code: Select all

tail -f /var/log/httpd/*error.log
