FEATURE REQUEST: Mass Device Edit
Posted: Wed Aug 17, 2011 4:14 pm
Hi all.
I posted about this several weeks ago and tried to log it on the bug tracker but I don't think it ever went through. I'd like a feature to mass edit certain variables of devices preferably through dropdowns and check boxes. GLPI, a ticketing software, has an excellent method for batch altering objects. You select the objects you want to modify, then select "Update" in the first dropdown which populates a second dropdown with variables that can be changed. You then select the variable to be changed and commit the change. Its such a simple design and I'd love to see this in Nagios XI. Its incredibly cumbersome to manage any more than a few hundred devices especially if you only need to change one variable on each device.
