Linux Distribution and version?
1. Cent OS 5.5 / 64 Bit
2. Manual Install
3. Gnome installed

To Nagios XI Tech Support Specialist:
Where can I look or use to modify the look for our network monitor graphs? The graphs that we are using are not helping us.

What graphs are you currently using? Have you tried the Graph Explorer component?

Which one do think that our serveris using for monitoring our host list?

mguthrie ,
If we dislike the Graph Explorer Component, can we uninstall it and go back to the old original graphs???

The graph explorer component provides new graphs in addition to the old ones. The new graphs from the graph explorer can be accessed from the Home->Graph Explorer page, while the old graphs remain where they were.
