Personalized a dashboard xi

Post by ABBsupervision »

Hello team,

I want to display the IP address of the servers in the Nagios xi menu as (the server name, status, Last check .. ) see attachement

You have an idea ?

Best Regards,
SOUHAIB

Hello @ABBsupervision

Thanks for reaching out on this.

You can edit the host in Configure > Core Config Manager > Hosts and set the Alias to the IP address and they will show up in the parenthesis like the one in your screenshot OR you can click on your username in the top right corner of the xi web interface you'll see these as well which gives some additional options:

Code: Select all

Display host display names (replaces hostname on host/service status and host status detail pages)
Display service display names (replaces service name in service status and service status detail pages)
If you're referring to adding another column to the table that isn't currently possible as it is hard-coded in source code and not modifiable. I can submit a feature request to development on your behalf if you'd like?

Thanks,
Perry

Hello,

Thank you for feedback.

Yes indeed, it is a good idea to add a column for the IP address.

Thanks for your help.

Hello @ABBsupervision

We have put in a feature request for this on your behalf, and here is the Nagios Change Log for your reference.

I will go ahead and lock this.

Thanks,
