Does creating dashlets & components using existing xi/fusion codes (with modification) allowed?

I would think so - that's the best way to get started, but the Nagios folks will know for sure.

Yes you can create custom dashlets and components, that utilize existing functions call. However, you should NOT modify the code in XI or fusion outsid eof your dashlet or component as this not only could break your install, it would be overridden on your next upgrade.

All changes should be contained within your component or dashlet code.
