I want to add services from command-line interface

Post by kalyan »

Hi guys,

I am using Nagios XI. I want to add new windows hosts and it's service definitions. I am able to add services from GUI mode (from browser) and command-line mode (from putty). Here, If I added any new hosts or services from command-line mode, Its not showing in GUI mode. My one of colleague is not aware in Unix. so, If I edit through commandline, He is getting difficult to edit host or service definitions. some images attached here for your reference. Is there any solution..??

It is possible to edit from command line, but not like you are doing it.

You'll either need to use the /usr/local/nagios/etc/static directory or use the API. The documentation on adding services through the API can be found at http://YOURSERVER/nagiosxi/help/api-con ... erence.php. Full API documentation is at http://192.168.4.156/nagiosxi/help/api.php
