Nagios Support Forum

two questions:
1) how do I add the report "top alert producers" to a dashboard in nagios XI?
2) How can I create queries that have the results on the dashboard like Top 5 hosts with highest packet loss?

Hello @pspagnola,

Dashboards only support dashlets, so adding a report to a dashboard is not available but this could be accomplished with the development of a custom dashlet.

is this image from the main website a report or a dashboard? I want that.

Hi,

Thanks for posting the screenshot. I was not able to find that in available dashlets on my test server. You can add that to a dashboard by going to Home > Graphs > Graph Explorer > Top Alert Producers.

Back to the other part of my original question:
Is there a way to put on a dashboard or into a report that shows Top N hosts with high latency or Top N hosts with high packet loss??

Hi @pspagnola,

That's currently not provided by the reports, but I can submit a feature request on your behalf if you'd like.

yes, please. I would like to see that as a new feature.

I imagine it would look just like the "top alert producers" except I would get to pick a different metric for my hosts.

Thanks.

Hi,

No problem. Got it submitted. Please keep in mind that the decision to implement the enhancement is at the discretion of our development team.
