Custom Dashboard handpick hosts

Post by johndoe »

I want to do a custom dashboard showing only some hosts and their services, what is the best way to do such ? Grouping them?

If you search for just the host in host/service details, you can add each individual host's service details table to your custom dashboard. Alternatively, you can create a new hostgroup for those hosts, and then add the hostgroup summary to your custom dashboard.
