I've just come back from a refreshing shower (it's funny, I find most of my inspiration in the shower these days - strangeness :? ) Anyway, in fear of digressing, I've come to a conclusion that the major 2 bottlenocks to NLG are:
- the network transfer overhead between the Nagios and the NLG server (if on different machines) - the speed of the browser in rendering the returned output To solve both of these, in v0.2.5, I'll build in a "pager" for the hosts, as follows: When the poller gathers it's data from Nagios, it sorts it into alphabetical data according to the hostname, then only sends back the first X number of hosts (set in the config.) Then at the bottom of the screen, you'll get a bar like the following: "Showing hosts 1 - 20 of 300 [ page 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 ... 15 ]" which you can use to flick through the rest. I'll also add an overall server/metric status (like the 'Network Health' section in Nagios's Tactical Overview). In the future I'm planning on adding support for showing planned downtimes, acknowledgements and comments. Methinks this should work :) Andy. Colby Williams wrote: > How many Devices can it handle?
