Nagios Support Forum

Hello,

The Bulk Host Cloning and import wizard is not working. We have cloned on host by adding a CSV below format

ip, Name


But It is not working, after apply its shows the error that Max check attempts is invalid for the new host. And on checking the new host config the Max check attempts is blank and it will not copy the parent host config.

What version of the wizard and XI is this?

Is the parent host using a template? Max check attempts is a required setting so I would have to think it is set somewhere if not directly on the hosts.

As a test, try setting the parent host's max check attempts, saving and applying the changes, and then run the bulk import wizard again.
