I have sent an e-mail to Ethan to suggest the same thing: to create =
another
layer where i could group the individual services into business process. =
But
so far, no answer (I imagine the "tons" of e-mails asking por =
improvements
in Nagios....).
The main target for us would be generate reports (but monitoring would =
be
useful too...) to the manager level, about the availability, =
service/hosts
which produces more downtimes, etc.
I believe that=B4s all the basic data are already in Nagios (at the
status.log, and all logs archived), just needing a CGI-specific =
development
to monitor and extract reports. If i were a C++ programmer, i would =
start to
think more seriously about that.
At least, it would be nice to see this features in Nagios=B4future =
releases
(4.0?).

Assunto: [Nagios-devel] Status for a whole business process
Hello out there,
I'm looking for something I did not find yet in nagios:
We are already watching about 200 services on about 100 hosts in nagios. =
We
use the web interface at the moment only for administrators. For the =
future
we plan to use it also in the call center, were customers call when they
have problems. For this type of use we would need a new view in the web
interface to see the state of a whole business process.
Let me explain:
A business process is a product that our customer sees.
e. g. for a special business pocess (let's say a web application) to =
work
correct we need the internet connection to work, the webserver task has =
to
run, the application server, the database and a DNS server must also be
well. All the single components are already monitored by nagios.
We think about a view in the web interface, where you can see a
red/yellow/green state for each defined business processes. The status
should be "ok" if every component is ok, if at least one component is
"warning", the state of the business process should be yellow, and if at
least one is "critical" it should be red.
Some special hints:
a component can be used in many business processes. (e. g. the internet =
line
is important for every) some components are redundant. Its ok, if even =
one
is in ok state (e. g. DNS servers are redundant. If at least one is
funktional, it's enough for the business process to work well)
Has someone already built something like that?
Even if it would cover only a part of the points, it would help.
