Thanks to both of you for the information. I guess I will have to play around with the x and y coords and see how it goes. Seems like there would be an easier way.
One more quick question. Where do you get your vrml icons for the 3D map? I don't see any on nagiosexchange and when I tried to use ones from the nagios base package they look like garbage. -----Original Message----- From: Valdinger, Stephen (DOV, MSX) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2008 5:09 PM To: Josh Wells; nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Setting up statusmap icons Parenting will clear up the status map icons, as will supplying x y coords in hostextinfo definitions.

Define host { Name windows-server Use generic-host Statusmap_image rm_windows.png ... } Define host { Name linux-server Use generic-host Statusmap_image rm_linux.png ... } Define host { Name exchange-server Use windows-server Statusmap_image mail.png ... } And then if you need to overwrite the default image you can just toss it in the host definition that's using the template. /usr/local/nagios/share is the webroot, so yes in /usr/local/nagios/share/images/logos _____ From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Josh Wells Sent: Thursday, March 13, 2008 4:19 PM To: nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net Subject: [Nagios-users] Setting up statusmap icons I'm fairly new to nagios and running nagios 3. I want to configure icons on my statusmap and have a couple questions. First is about the location. The nagios documentation says the default location for the images is /usr/local/nagios/share/images/logos. I have the book Building a Monitoring Infrastructure with Nagios by David Josephson and it says the icons are expected to be in the webroot/images/icons directory. So where should I store the icons? Secondly the documentation says in nagios 3.x extended host information definitions can be added to the host definitions. So in the host definition I would just include statusmap_image and the name of the image file? What I would really like to do if possible is tie the icon to my windows server group rather than having to go through and edit every single host definition. It isn't a huge deal but would be easier. Thanks for the help and glad to be joining the nagios community.
