What's the usage idea behind RSS and Nagios? That while I'm in front

of my PC, I get a pop-up from my RSS reader?


If you like. But anyone with a statusview on several central screens might

love to see Nagios among the other RSS feeds.


Just to reiterate - this implementation means that it is not exactly the same as looking at the status screens. The feeds are based on notifications, so, for instance, the status screens will show a soft failure, but the RSS will only show on hard failures.

You could think there is a timing limitation, since a service would have to go through first failure + retries then notify on RSS, then the RSS reader would have a polling cycle before it reaches the operator's eyes - this may not be quick enough for an operations team.
