Max listings per page.

Post by epx998 »

Hi All,

Just want to say thanks for the forum support provided. Thus far I am really liking NagiosXI, minus a DB issue, it is working great. I do have another question though. On the 'service detail' page, the max listings per page is 100. Is there a way to increase that? By the end of my addings hosts/services, I will have well over 1000 tests running, if not, quite a bit more. It would be nice if I had the option to list all the services being tested, regardless of how many.

Also curious, if I make a host manually from scratch, the flat files that would go into the objects and services directories, would NagiosQL pick those up and import it? While teaching myself the application, I had deleted the localhost files (on purpose), then saw that it was removed from the NagiosXI gui. I also deleted the entries from the db manually. Later I just dropped in 2 new flat files from a test machine and they appeared to be imported by Nagios. As nice as the wizards are, if I can just create flat files en mass and Nagios just sees them, imports, my life would be 100x easier my POC for our network would be complete.

Cheers,
Gavin

Regarding the listings we have the same problem. The solution i have found is if you right click the link and open it in a seperate window it will show all hosts/services in 1 go instead of capping them at 100. When you change the amount the link itself will also update with the amount you choose. There you can also change the amount viewable.

epx998,

You can post this on our tracker as a feature request.

http://tracker.nagios.com/

Max listings per page are set at 100 for a reason. Increasing this number will lead to a significant increase in the page load time. Probably, you will be better off using the "Quick find" feature of Nagios XI.

The other "hack" method you could use is putting ?results=1000 in your URL, and that will make it display 1000 results for any page you look at. Just know that this will affect your page load times.
