I just setup Nagios xi and Fusion from a OVA. Configured a couple of hosts monitors on Nagios xi added a read only Fusion user and tried to connect Fusion to xi. Without success.
On Fusion menu under Configure/Server/Fusion Server Credentials, Server Status = Unresponsive and Atuh Check = Server Timeout.
Tried to connect with different users admin and a read only user, stopped firewall on both sides. Without success.
Both servers are in the same subnet and can communicate.
Versions:
Nagios xi 5.2.0
Nagios Fusion 2014R1.1
Someone have a hint for me to get this work ?
Thanks for help

Re: Fusion unable to connect to Nagios xi servers
Most probably you are not able to connect because you selected "basic" authentication. Nagios xi servers use "session" authentication. For more info on the topic, see our "Nagios Fusion - Getting Started" document here:

I've tested it with session and basic Authentication Method. But still Server Status = Unresponsive and Auth Check = Server Timeout. What do i miss

Session is the one you're supposed to use I believe. Have you configured SSL on the xi server?
