Re: [Nagios-users] Question on setting up a specialized status.cgi page
I stumbled upon the answer to my issue for a custom status page.
What I was doing wrong was I created in the servicegroups.cfg file with a line
called members
members HOSTNAME1,check_1, check_2,
check_3,check_4,check_5,HOSTNAME2, SAME 5 CHECKS AS HOST #1,HOSTNAME3,SAME
This method did not work. I wound up removing the members line from the
servicegroups.cfg file, just leaving the service group name the alias in the
file and added the service group name to each define service for the 5
legacy_checks as follows :
define service{
use generic-service
servicegroups Legacy Checks
hostgroup_name APP_servers
contact_groups admins,legacy
notification_optionsw,c
active_checks_enabled 0
service_description Legacy CPU Load
check_command check_legacy_cpu
}
This allowed me to get the service group for all different legacy checks I
wanted. Then If I run the following url
http://NAGIOS_SERVER/nagios/cgi-bin/status.cgi?servicegroup=Legacy+Checksservicestatustypes=16
I get the list of all legacy checks for all hosts and the critical ones only.
Hopefully someone else can benefit from this info.
Regards,
Steve

Thanks for your reply Jim,
I tried to set up the servicegroup as follows :
define servicegroup {
servicegroup_name Legacy_Checks
aliasLegacy Checks
members HOSTNAME1,check_1, check_2,
check_3,check_4,check_5,HOSTNAME2, SAME 5 CHECKS AS HOST #1,HOSTNAME3,SAME
}
I assume that the service group will only work with a single check for multiple
hosts as if I removed all of the checks but 1, it will work. This however will
not work for what I am trying to do.
Thanks,
Steve

What was is about servicegroups which didn't work for you? That's
what I'd look at first.

Re: [Nagios-users] Question on setting up a specialized status.cgi page
please review the document of objects definition, the following quoted
from servicegroup definition:
members:
This is a list of the descriptions of services (and the names of their
corresponding hosts) that should be included in this group. Host and
service names should be separated by commas. This directive may be
used as an alternative to the servicegroups directive in service
definitions. The format of the member directive is as follows (note
that a host name must precede a service name/description):
members=host1,service1,host2,service2,...,hostn,servicen

[Nagios-users] Question on setting up a specialized status.cgi page
Hello All, I have say 20 hosts that among their checks they each run the same 5 checks on a SCO Unix machine at their location via an rsh script. For example, I rsh to the sco box, do a sar on it and report the results back and determine if the cpu on the sco box is high. These check reports as a check from the host and is called Legacy CPU. I wanted to set up a status.cgi page that the people responsible for the legacy stuff could look at and see the status of all 5 Legacy_XXX checks on one status page. I have not been able to figure out how to get this page to display. I have tried setting up a servicegroup, manually playing with the statustypes, looking into doing it via extinfo.cgi and have come up empty handed. These hosts have a bunch of checks coming back from them into the console but I wanted to just have some sort of Legacy Check Service group screen. I think I am missing something easy here and may be trying to over engineer this Thanks, Steve -- The ultimate all-in-one performance toolkit: Intel(R) Parallel Studio XE: Pinpoint memory and threading errors before they happen.
