No, it's not dumb at all. The problem is that the status.cgi requires
that you "hand-roll" your service_status_types filter yourself - there is
no web-page containing a list of filters to choose from.
So, to enable filters, you would manually construct an URL like:
http://myhost/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi ... tustypes=X
Where "X" is the mathematical sum of all of the desired service status
filters.
Here is the list of available filters:
SERVICE_SCHEDULED_DOWNTIME 1
SERVICE_NO_SCHEDULED_DOWNTIME 2
SERVICE_STATE_ACKNOWLEDGED 4
SERVICE_STATE_UNACKNOWLEDGED 8
SERVICE_CHECKS_DISABLED 16
SERVICE_CHECKS_ENABLED 32
SERVICE_EVENT_HANDLER_DISABLED 64
SERVICE_EVENT_HANDLER_ENABLED 128
SERVICE_FLAP_DETECTION_ENABLED 256
SERVICE_FLAP_DETECTION_DISABLED 512
SERVICE_IS_FLAPPING 1024
SERVICE_IS_NOT_FLAPPING 2048
SERVICE_NOTIFICATIONS_DISABLED 4096
SERVICE_NOTIFICATIONS_ENABLED 8192
SERVICE_PASSIVE_CHECKS_DISABLED 16384
SERVICE_PASSIVE_CHECKS_ENABLED 32768
SERVICE_PASSIVE_CHECK 65536
SERVICE_ACTIVE_CHECK 131072
SERVICE_STATE_TYPE_SOFT 262144
SERVICE_STATE_TYPE_HARD 524288
So, to see only HARD states, you'd substitute 524288 for "X" in the URL:
http://myhost/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi ... pes=524288
As a further example of the additive property of filters, you could choose
a combination of services that are *not* in scheduled downtime *and*
services that are in a SOFT state.
In this case "X" = 2 + 262144 = 262146:
http://myhost/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi ... pes=262146
Please let me know if this doesn't work as advertised.
