Adding more fields to nagios xi views...

Post by ormsbeec »

Is there a way to customize the fields in the default views?


Host,Service,Status,Duration,Attempt,Last Check,Status Information, CUSTOM FIELD


I have looked but am not sure if there is a way to do it or if I am not searching for the correct thing?

There isn't currently anything in xi that allows for that, but it's an interesting idea for a feature request. Feel free to post to tracker.nagios.com if you want to file one.

There is a component to add custom object notes to the host or service details:

I'll add a feature request.... But the Notes Object might tide things over for the time being.. I just need to be able to display a little more information about the host and I would prefer that it be on the same screen with the checks.

Ok, yeah the feature request will keep that on our radar for future releases.
