Nagios Support Forum

Thanks for the input lanware, always useful!

To add some more idea's

For one i would like the possibility to add a own logo without changing the source. Since we have been tweaking the source for our logo but there is always something that is off like the dimensions or sharpness.

Secondly it would be nice if the report you run/send gets the name of hostgroup/host/service when you filter. For example we around 50 customers which use nagios and each one gets there own report. Because of this it would be nice if you can just select the report which has the name of the customer.

lastly a local backup or some kind would be nice where the reports get saved in a dir containing the date of the day they got send. This needs for the second option to be present to be viable.

One other thing I noticed was that filtering doesn't stack. If I filter by ServiceGroup it shows me average availability for ALL hosts and not just those with services in the service group. I created a hostgroup with just those hosts, and thought I would filter by both, but if I change the hostgroup it then removes the servicegroup from the filter.

What also would be a nice feature is the language the report is in. For most of our customers we want to use the Dutch locale and possible even add some own text to all the reports. I know the language editing is possible from the source but it would be nice if its possible todo from the nagiosxi website itself. Doing the translation wont be a problem and i am even willing to help with that.

Thanks for posting the "Using Scheduled Reports" document. I installed this add-on and have played around with it a bit. Here are some things that we need at our company:

* The ability to modify the look of the report. We need different chart types, layouts, etc.
* The ability to combine hosts into one graph. For example, one of our teams monitors the disk drive space of one particular drive on our Exchange servers. They want to have a line graph that shows the free space on each server during a one week period. Each server would be represented by a different colored line.
* Scheduled reports. This part works great. I just need to be able to create the reports I need and not be limited to what is available in Nagios.

Thanks again.

Everybody, thanks for your input. All of these are great ideas.
