change Network Status Map default layout

Post by rba »

Sorry if this has been answered elsewhere.

Where can the default layout of the Network Status map changed to something else (now it defaults to Circular Balloon)? for example Balanced Tree ?

This is on the latest version of Nagiosxi, running on Centos7

Thanks

You can click on the button in the upper right corner under the "Network Status Map" page, select "Balanced Tree" option from the "Layout" drop-down menu, and click on "Apply".

yeah it can be changed there but is there a config file that can be edited so the default is something other than circular balloon?

Unfortunately, it is not possible to set up a "default" layout for the Network Status Map in Nagios XI at the moment. In Nagios Core, you can change the default layout by modifying the cgi.cfg file.

Example:

Code: Select all

default_statusmap_layout=3

In order to add this functionality in Nagios XI, we would need to modify the "statusmap" component. This could be a good candidate for a feature request.
