Power Cycling from Nagios Dashlet

Post by zioncalvo »

I am wondering what would be the best way to create a dashlet that manages the localhost power. Is there a way to create buttons that would either power on, power off, power cycle, etc. Would this be possible via dashlet? Can a dashlet communicate with the host to launch a script via button press?

Thanks.

There isn't a dashlet included in Nagios XI that has this capability.

Would we be able to build a dashlet that has the capability to run scripts via button press? Is that a capability that Nagios has? And if so how would we go about doing that.

This is available via the actions component for the detail pages, but not as a dashlet
