I live and die by NagVis.

All our App owners are fighting to be next to have their stuff modeled and put on a screen in their area.

But the first time you start the terminal / pc which controls the screens, don't you need to accept the NagVis password?

@edward.bosco the Views rotation using the URL that Scott mentioned is the way to go here and is the most supported method. The Views page was designed specifically to be able to show multiple screens in a rotation and it sounds like this is what you need. Let us know if you need further assistance.

Thanks much for the tab rotator tip.

Implemented one for Chrome that's working nicely.

There's several:

Could you please clarify what you mean by Nagios Views would work better?

All -

Sorry for the delay in answering.

The 'Views' would be better per the explanation above. One less software tool to track or integrate, as it comes with Nagios XI.

We're trying a couple layouts to see what works best for us.

Let us know what you come up with. For the time-being I can't really make a better recommendation than the Views dashboard, but if you can think of any ways to improve it let us know.

Made this http://tracker.nagios.com/view.php?id=774

I think the 'having to click the blue icon' is one of the problems with the Views.

That's up to the devs at this point. OP, from a support standpoint are we all clear to close this out?
