Unable to bulk edit hosts or services

Good morning,

I am unable to do bulk edits on hosts. For example, if do a bulk change to a number of hosts to change their host_parent. The process appears to be complete. But, when I go back and check with the host there is no change to the host_parent.

Please let me know if you need/want anything from our system.
  • CentOS Linux release 7.9.2009 (Core)
  • 64bit
  • Manual Install

Hi @cdcrawford,

If there's any type of error when it's making the change to the configurations, it's going to revert back to the previous version to avoid any disruption.

Let's run the following tail command.

Code: Select all

tail -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/cmdsubsys.lo
Then use the bulk mods tool to make those changes, and post the log output to the thread so we can review any errors. Thanks, Benjamin
