Hey Everybody,

Any users interested in testing are welcome to give it a try and post any comments or problems you have with it to this thread.
We hope to have 1.7 production ready next week.

- Applied fix to check_xi_service_mrtgtraf.php PNP template to fix units problem on perf graphs

Can we get the file(s) to fix this on current (1.6) implementations?

Kyle,

Make a backup of your /usr/local/nagios/share/pnp/templates/check_xi_service_mrtgtraf.php and replace it with the attached file.

Keep in mind you will have to rename the attached file to check_xi_service_mrtgtraf.php
You do not have the required permissions to view the files attached to this post.

We're just working kinks out of the install script (which was streamlined in a large way). Just a few minor fixes, so its quite close.
