Hello,

Extract from Nagvis documentation:

By default NagVis uses an internal user and permission database (SQLite) for handling authentication and authorisation. Nagvis uses a role based permission system. After installation there are two default users defined:

Username: nagiosadmin, Password: nagiosadmin
Username: guest, Password: guest
The following roles with these permissions are available:

Administrators: Full permissions on the whole installation
Users: Read access to all maps, automaps and rotations in the installation
Guests: Read access to all demo maps, automaps and rotations
These default users and roles should be ok for beginning. You may delete these users and roles but please be aware not to delete the last administrative user.

It's some time ago I configured my NagVis, but i think after logging into NagVis with the default user and password, you can add users. I use the same username in NagVis as in Nagios Xi and it seems to work. You need to provide a password in NagVis when creating users, but I don't think it is used.

Hope this helps.

Grtz

Willem

Thanks WillemDH

There was one user with more rights , I logged from that user and I assigned myself as Administrator and then clicked Modify User. I think its okay now.

You can close the case.
