Nagios XI Notes - Distribution option

Hi,
I'm wondering if there is a way to distribute the Note component to several services.
For example - If I have specific note for 1 host, I want to put the same data in notes for 1000 service. Is there a way to do that?
Maybe some sql query?

The notes are stored in postgresql. You can view them by running:
Code: Select all
echo 'select * from xi_options;' | psql nagiosxi nagiosxi | grep objectnotes
We usually don't recommend messing up directly with the database. This could be a feature request candidate.

Yeah, I totaly agree with you, but I'm using notes as it serves my NOC team for each of the alerts, and it's kinda ennoying when you need to copy paste lots of times.
How can I (or others) to request it as feature? And I guess it will take months to do that
Actually it could be nice if you could add it to the Bulk modifications, could be the same result.

Requests for Nagios XI can be created here:

Provide as much detail as possible so the developers can understand your idea and how you think it should be implemented.
