I'm getting lost in trying to set up the rapid response url
i saw that XI has it avail by default
but i'm not sure on what to do?
Do I just add %responseurl% to this line, and click the check box?

then do the same for Service state?

Rapid response URL is only available in Notifications sent to XI users and is not available for event handlers as the rapid response URL contains a sequence that is different for each user that receive it so the system know what user to log the activity as.
To see the available options for these event handlers see here:

y, all they want is a link directly to the check when the notification email goes out
is there a simpler way to do it?
I do not see it in the list of standard macros

You would want to craft a URL like the following replacing XISERVER, HOSTNAME and SERVICENAME
service
Code: Select all
http://XISERVER/nagiosxi/?xiwindow=includes%2Fcomponents%2Fxicore%2Fstatus.php%3Fshow%3Dservicedetail%26host%3DHOSTNAME%26service%3DSERVICENAME%26dest%3Dauto
host
Code: Select all
http://XISERVER/nagiosxi/?xiwindow=includes%2Fcomponents%2Fxicore%2Fstatus.php%3Fshow%3Dhostdetail%26host%3DHOSTNAME

sometimes you guys make it really hard to do stuff
I did a hack
I stole the service notes macro and crafted a url like this to link me directly to the check in the email
http://prdnagxi01.example.net/nagiosxi/ ... &dest=auto
Can I ask that you create a standard macro for $XISERVER$ so I don't have to customize the check for every one of my XI installations

There is this from the doc I sent, you can use that as part of the URL
Page 6 of the document shows you how to create your own macros in this section
"Adding Nagios Core Macros To The Global Event Handler Component"

when I used your url, it said event not found, so I made the assumption that I was supposed to change the Variables to standard Nagios macros.

Did you enclose it in quotes when adding it to the handler?

I really wish it was a standard macro like $SERVICENOTESURL$ so I could just add the macro here
Code: Select all
/usr/bin/printf "%b" "***** Lvsprdnagxi01 Alert *****\n\nNotification Type: $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time: $LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional Info:\n\n$SERVICEOUTPUT$\n\nService Notes: $SERVICENOTES$\n\nService Notes URL:$SERVICENOTESURL$\n\n Comments: $SERVICEACKCOMMENT$" | /bin/mail -s "** $NOTIFICATIONTYPE$ LVSPRD Service Alert: $HOSTALIAS$/$SERVICEDESC$ is $SERVICESTATE$ **" $CONTACTEMAIL$
