      • Dependency for host and services.

        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.

        • The feedback tab gets in the way of comments.

          Move it. Like, to the right. Or just remove it.

            • Icinga Web Pocess Information

              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

                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.

                        • Statusmap with Export Function

                          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).

                          • Icinga with real distributed architecture

                            Icinga is just awesome ... My company want to start a project with your software but, we need a real distributed architecture with multiple Icinga servers and MySQL DB which replicate them self to a head servers but no Icinga architecture enable this. Unfortunately, we move to Zabbix because its Zabbix Server/Zabbix Proxy meets our needs.
                            I suggest to the dev team to developp a distributed architecture like Zabbix. In my opinion if you create this, Icinga will be the first one entreprise monitoring software.
                            Best regards.

                              under review  ·  dnsmichiAdmindnsmichi (Admin, Icinga) responded

                              replication of multiple mysql rdbms shouldn’t be the default target in a distributed system rather than creating a real distributed system. so i don’t get the idea why icinga should be zabbix?

                                can you specifiy that a bit more? a trap receiver like nagtrap passing external commands to the core would be a working example to be documented?

                                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 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.

                                  • User Customisable Notifications

                                    Different monitoring system users like to receive, and view, different information. In an ideal world, a user would be able to choose which hosts/services, or even host/service groups to receive notifications from. Imagine a case where a user of a massive implementation (something my company is looking at...) is a systems specialist and is interested in getting notifications from the systems/areas that they're actively interested in. Essentially, my suggestion is that users should be able to 'sign up' for notifications against given hosts/etc.

                                    • host depends on service

                                      It would be nice if a host can depend on a service. This Feature would fix several Problems like VPN and VLAN. At this moment its only possible by using a hostdefinition for one of this Service. In a big statusmap with many VPN Tunnels and some VLAN's its very unorganised and confusing.

                                      • consider using mk_livestatus for icinga-web

                                        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?

                                          • icinga-web with multiple data sources

                                            icinga-web should handle more than one datasources, so you can have autonomic icinga installations and one webinterface for an overlook over them all.
