A clean and simple overview of your Nagios environment optimized for the system adminstratos displays.
I designed this dashboard For my Final Year project as a way to have quick visibility into Nagios service monitoring your network infrastructure. It offers a color coded system which helps stand out any troubles that are going on and automatic background updates mean you don't have to constantly refresh the page.
- You need to have a working installation of MK LiveStatus for this dashboard to work. MK LiveStatus is available as a package on many Linux distributions for easy installation.
- Apache
- Apache mod_rewrite module if you wish to use the Team Filtering (see below)
- PHP 5.3.3 or newer
- Any host or service in trouble will show on the dashboard /* Nagios Operations Dashboard Description: Displays a quick glance overview of the environment. Requires MK Livestatus. Version: config.php -> DASHBOARD_VERSION */
- If there are any active troubles, and acknowledged troubles, the top banner will only focus on those which have not been acknowledged
- If a host is OK, it will not show on the dashboard
- If a host has notifications disabled, it will not show on the dashboard
- Separation of active versus acknowledged for a quick glance on what troubles need to be focused on
Set it and forget it. The dashboard will constantly refresh the body content with new alerts. Default is 5 seconds, but it is configurable.
The dashboard is also hostgroup aware. If you have multiple teams that use your Nagios system, group their items into a hostgroup and give them the URL for their items ( e.g. https://coict.ac.tz/nagios/ops/hostgroup/ ). Each team can have their own wall display, or monitor/tablet which shows them only the items they are responsible for.
You can check the dashboard from your mobile devices, the design will change to try and fit everything in.
