Unable to Select a Service When Creating a Service Escalation

Post by wifeclique »

I'm trying to create a Service Escalation, but I'm unable to proceed because the Services field is required. When I click Add Service, the selection box appears empty and doesn't display any available services to choose from.

Since this field is mandatory, I can't complete the Service Escalation setup. Could you please let me know if there's a prerequisite configuration or an additional step required to populate the Services field?

Hi @wifeclique ,

Thanks for reaching out. What version of XI are you using and what distro & version?
Please let us know if you have any other questions or concerns.

It might be that the UI is not as intuitive as it could be there. You first have to select the host the service runs on, and then select the service.

Here's the doc: https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... I-2024.pdf
