Well, i have similar problem, I have 530 hosts, so having all those on one map would be meaningless. I just need the routers and the wireless machines on there. If i chose what to exclude from the status map, it will still keep links pointing to hidden devices and thus the map will still be cluttered. I found a patch on the Pkg-nagios-devel debian mailing list, a post dating back to Tue, 28 Jun 2005. so i guess that patch was made to work with maybe nagios-1.x ?? anyway, link to original post ::
http://lists.alioth.debian.org/pipermail/pkg-nagios-devel/2005-June/000804.html this is supposed to make the map only show certain selective hostgroups on the statusmap. i tried the patch on statusmap.c , I am using nagios 2.5. the patch failed. Im not very good at reading C code, could someone help out here ? maybe fix the patch for the current nagios version, also seems a good idea to include in future nagios versions Help appreciated ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
