Service name limitation

Post by nms »

Hi,

Is there a way to extend or make an unlimited number of characters that can be allowed for a service name?

Reason being that currently if a name is too long it will affect the shortcut of the performance graph and it will not be visible nor can it be viewed when you click on the monitor.

What version of XI are you using? I tested on a 5.7.4 machine and this limitation doesn't appear.

Perhaps I just didn't use a long enough name before, but I'm seeing the behavior now and looking into it.
