2 Host groups
Overview
In the Configuration → Host groups section users can configure and maintain host groups.
A listing of existing host groups with their details is displayed. You can search and filter host groups by name.
Displayed data:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
| Name | Name of the host group. Clicking on the group name opens the group configuration form. |
| Hosts | Number of hosts in the group (displayed in gray) followed by the list of group members. Clicking on a host name will open the host configuration form. Clicking on the number will, in the whole listing of hosts, filter out those that belong to the group. |
| Info | Error information (if any) regarding the host group is displayed. |
Mass editing options
Buttons below the list offer some mass-editing options:
- Enable hosts - change the status of all hosts in the group to "Monitored"
- Disable hosts - change the status of all hosts in the group to "Not monitored"
- Delete - delete the host groups
To use these options, mark the checkboxes before the respective host groups, then click on the required button.
Using filter
You can use the filter to display only the host groups you are interested in. For better search performance, data is searched with macros unresolved.
