Nagios Fusion / XI
Posted: Fri Sep 26, 2014 3:39 am
Hi,
I use nagiosXI a lot, so when we purchased it, we took nagios fusion as well in the bundle.
After using it for a day here are my ideas/issues...
1. fusion/XI - The ability to restrict users to view only certain hosts / services / host groups / Service groups
For example, I have a DB team. I only want them to see the SQL service and servers
2. Fusion / XI - The ability to add/edit text on a dashlets title. I have loads, but I can only tell what they are when I hover over them
3. Fusion - If you add a service status dashlet its a single line item. If you add a further one for the same host, why do they not combine? So annoying trying to align two or more single line dashlets.
4. Fusion - Have an alignment feature
5. Ability to change colours
For example, on my host group, if something is critical it comes up as red and blue, this is pretty hard to distinguish. Maybe red/white?
6. If you have alerts, or outstanding issues dashlet. how about new items to flash for x amount of time.
For example, I have nagios open all the time on a second screen. Out the corner of my eye I would notice a flashing item and could be right on it.
7. Fusion, I have a host group dashlet. Why is it half in the dynamic box and half out?
Just my thoughts after a day.
