Dashlets for Host/Service group filtering

Hi

We are looking to create a very large nagios deployment and we want to have different screens with dashboards on them, each screen focusing on a particular geographic location for example.

As far as I can tell the dashlets in Nagios do not allow you to filter our or include specific host groups. They will show you all hostgroups you have access to.

Technically it is possible I guess to start using separate accounts etc but its REALLY clunky. Is there a way to apply filtering at some level that allows you to only display specific host group/service groups etc in dashlets?

Thanks

HI @rexmundo

The host group status page will provide dashlets of each hostgroup. If you make hostgroups based on geographic location, that might work for you.

Another possible workaround would be to leverage the Operations Center, Home > Quick View > Operations Center, as it will allow you to filter on host groups and more. You can add those pages to a View.

Let me know if that would work for you or not.
