If Nagios XI is setup using the Japanese language, and a service check response returns data in Japanese, will Nagios XI display the returned data in Japanese as received?

Hi,
That should work. I made a quick python plugin to test this with a headline from today's Asahi News.

The plugin does need to handle utf-8 and multilingual ouput.
Also, make sure you have the database encoding in
/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/config.inc.php set to UTF8.
Code: Select all
"dbtype" => 'mysql',
"dbserver" => 'localhost',
"user" => 'ndoutils',
"pwd" => 'n@gweb',
"db" => 'nagios',
"charset" => "utf8",
"dbmaint" => array( // variables affecting maintenance of ndoutils db
Let us know if you get it working.
