Re: Nagios fusion
1) Can NF pull reports from remote nagiosxi or nagiosxi
- Reporting is handled on a per installation basis and pulls information from that local install so you must access it from fusion in order to see it's reports currently.
2 ) Can NF show the Graph of remote Nagiosxi
- Yes you can view graphs from the Visualizations tab of the Home menu
3) Can NF pull the data from Nagios core and create graphs on NF... same with Nagiosxi?
- What type of graphing are you looking for? You can view a limited amount of graphs from the page noted above. Or are you inquiring about pulling the same graphs you see on the monitoring servers up to the Fusion server?
4) Can NF is able to manage users in which a particular user should be able to login NF and should only be allotted particular hosts to view.....
as there will be n number of Nagiosxi and Nagios Core...so particular user should only be able to view hosts and services of one of the nagiosxi
out of every nagiosxi or nagios core.
Yes, you can lock down certain users to only view servers that their credentials match, say User A is created on both fusion and one of your XI servers, that user can view the Xi server, since with fusion you can drill down directly into the servers from it's UI.

- Reporting is handled on a per installation basis and pulls information from that local install so you must access it from fusion in order to see it's reports currently
so we can access it from fusion In order to see it’s reports ….but can we generate it from fusion.
Eg : if I have fusion installed and in that n number of remote nagios core is added in fusion….so can I generate reports of core and display it on fusion .
2 ) Can NF show the Graph of remote Nagiosxi
- Yes you can view graphs from the Visualizations tab of the Home menu
But there are very few options for graphs in nagios fusion…I don’t find much about graphs as I can see in nagisoxi…..
Can I have same graphs on nagiosfusion which I can see in nagiosxi
3) Can NF pull the data from Nagios core and create graphs on NF... same with Nagiosxi?
- What type of graphing are you looking for? You can view a limited amount of graphs from the page noted above. Or are you inquiring about pulling the same graphs you see on the monitoring servers up to the Fusion server?
Yes , I want to pull the same graphs which I see on nagiosxi and deployed on nagios fusion
And also can I pull the data from core server and generate a graph on nagios fusion.

Great ,,but this is not possible for nagios core machine…..?
can we create a user for particular nagios core to access……?
Thanks

Re: Nagios fusion
Nagios Fusion is intended to display live status visualizations, and aggregating live data from all Nagios servers. For historical reporting, that will need to be accessed through the child servers.so we can access it from fusion In order to see it’s reports ….but can we generate it from fusion.
Eg : if I have fusion installed and in that n number of remote nagios core is added in fusion….so can I generate reports of core and display it on fusion .
Yes, there are graph dashlets that can be added to a dashboard. Most of the tools in Fusion are actually dashlets, so the idea is that you build your own home menu with as many custom dashboards as you need.But there are very few options for graphs in nagios fusion…I don’t find much about graphs as I can see in nagisoxi…..
Can I have same graphs on nagiosfusion which I can see in nagiosxi
Currently performance graph dashlets are only supported for child XI servers, not core.Yes , I want to pull the same graphs which I see on nagiosxi and deployed on nagios fusion
And also can I pull the data from core server and generate a graph on nagios fusion.
Currently Nagios Fusion only stores one set of credentials for all users, so if a user logs into Fusion, they will have access to the child servers with whatever credentials Fusion has saved. Since Fusion is considered a top-level view, keep this in mind as you set up your server credentials in Fusion. Many users will do read-only credentials in Fusion so that Fusion users can see whatever they need to see, but not commit actions for hosts/services they may not be authorized for.
