Statusmap with Export Function [is now planned]

2012-05-09T11:30:18-07:00

I love the Statusmap of new Icinga Web. But there is a extension that would be really great. In our IT Department we print the Statusmap and put it on the wall for meetings. So untill now i used Nagvis and made a screenshot put it into an image, changing the descriptions and so on. This is a lot of work i have to do every month. It would be a lot easier if i could click on an Button and i could download a whole Statusmap of the new Icinga Web (png,jpg,pdf or whatever).

Make the Status Map use all available space in the Browserwindow [is now planned]

2012-05-09T11:24:03-07:00

At the moment the Status Map seems to be using only 600 x 600 pixels on the screen. If you have a high resolution you could display more data.

icinga-web sould show 2 systems at the same time this means one on the left side and one on the othe [is now completed]

icinga-web should show more than the systems on the left side, while there are a lot of blank space on the middle side and on the right side. Our users must allways scroll to have a look of all systems.

Icinga Web Pocess Information [is now completed]

2012-05-09T11:13:50-07:00

Icinga Web is missing the System->Process Information page which is available in the classic GUI. This is especially important if you would like to disable notifications and/or restart the Icinga process.

Change Release Interval to 180 days [is now planned]

2012-05-09T11:04:04-07:00

From my work with Icinga the release interval of 90 days is to fast. In a enterprise environment it is very difficult to update the installation all 90 days. Further I can also imagine that for the development team a higher interval rate could maybe make life a little bit easier. If I remeber correctly I saw once a presentation from the Icinga Team with a roadmap where each second release should be a beta release. From documentation and each release I don't see that concept. My suggestion would be a release interval of 180 days instead of 90 days.

consider using mk_livestatus for icinga-web [updated]

2012-04-20T02:30:10-07:00

I was really impressed by the speed and opportuninties of the mk_livestatus eventbroker module. What do you think about using it for communication bewteen the new icinga-web an icinga-core?

Dependency for host and services.

2012-01-31T04:08:07-08:00

Simon suggested:
It would be (REALLY) useful to have builtin dependencys into Icinga to get functionallity like http://bp-addon.monitoringexchange.org/ and an easy way to build up an dependency tree. Its a bit of a pain with BP and I would rather in my host and service configs specify dependency and let Icinga sort everything out by itself.

Setting a default (mandatory) expiration for acknowledgements would require NOC to actively work issues or be paged again. Currently system allows for acknowledged but unfixed problems to fester.

API to add new hosts/groups/services/commands automagically. [updated]

Евгений Наумов said:

I suggest to think about classic interface with ability to create configuration entries (hosts, services,contacts and etc.). Classic UI have limited ability to configure Icinga. It would be great to extend it's functionality. I agree it should be some API in the Core. May be not "automatically"? but like in NagiosQL (add new entry, save config, refresh new config to daemon)

To much problems in the "open problems" overview, planed downtime is displayed as alarm. I always try to resolve problems until they fit onto the display without scrolling to recognize new problems as fast as possible. Because of that I'm still using Icinga Classic Interface.

2011-08-25T02:31:43-07:00

i was just installing icinga-web 1.0.1 at my gentoo system. After installing i couldn't log in. I wasn't doing anything. After reading a while throught the nagios-portal i figured out that there must be some php modules missing. After adding hash and ctyp and a few more it worked. would be great if all requirements could be cheked through "make testdeps". In this case everything would be coverd. And I also miss the requirements for web browsers. icinga-web works fine with my firefox 3.6.6 but my IE 7 won't show anything! apart from this I'm very pleased with your work folks. Thanks a lot!
