In my experience, for more than a few dozen hosts, the Nagios status map doesn't work too well. I recommend you look at the Nagios Extended Status Map (NEXSM) http://nexsm.gridshield.net/Overview.html NEXSM can be a bit of a pain to install, so I recommend you look through the NEXSM online forum for notes on how easily to install it. I think NEXSM install is also covered in Wolfgang Barth's book (2nd Edition), but I bought the book after installing NEXSM so can't comment on how good his instructions are (if the rest of the book is anything to go by they're probably very good). Alternatively, there's the auto map in NagVis which doesn't give you the same host icons, but is arguably easier to maintain, although it does require you to run NDO. http://www.nagvis.org/ hth, Jim ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Let Crystal Reports handle the reporting - Free Crystal Reports 2008 30-Day trial.
