Core admin account

Post by lyle »

Just installed XI, and a nagiosadmin account was created as a result. I can log in to the XI gui fine, but when I try to get to Core Config Manager, I don't have access.

I checked every privilege box on the account I could find, but I still can't get in.

Do I have to create another account somehow?

The reason I wanted to use the Core Config Manager was to change the timeout on check_nrpe. We used to define our own check_nrpe command under our old Core installation with a longer timeout. Now check_nrpe is defined in your commands.cfg, so after copying our commands-OurOwn.cfg to the static directory, I comment out our check_nrpe definition. But I figure the way to change the timeout on your definition had to be done through the XI gui.

Thanks for any advice....Lyle
