Own $USERX$ macros for SNAG-View 3

2023-05-02 11:18

In SNAG-View lassen sich sehr einfach weitere Platzhalter für den Pfad zu Plugins ($USERXXX$) integrieren. Dafür sind folgende Schritte notwendig:

In der "resource_cfg.xml" muss ein neuer <item> Eintrag erstellt werden.

Hinweis: Es ist darauf zu achten, bestehende <item>-Einträge nicht zu ändern oder zu löschen.

Beispiel:

Beispiel $User3$

Aktuell liefern wir zwei vordefinierte Makros aus: "$USER1$ und $USER2$". Nach der Änderung steht das Makro $USER3$ für den Pfad /var/lib/nagios/libexec-customer2 zur Verfügung

Im Anschluss wird das Script "/usr/bin/createNagiosCfg.sh" ausgeführt, damit wird die Konfiguration gespeichert und in der ressource.cfg gespeichert.

Edit LDAP-Filter-String in i-doit manually

If you do not wish to include all Active Directory users in i-doit, you can restrict said users via filters. Previously, the configuration of the LDAP filter could only be achieved by using the Filter Builder.

Starting from i-doit Version 31, the filter string can be edited directly.

Own $USERX$ macros for SNAG-View 3

Additional placeholders for the path to plugins ($USERXXX$) can be integrated very easily in SNAG-View. The following steps are necessary for this:

A new <item> entry must be created in the "resource_cfg.xml".

Note: Be careful not to change or delete existing <item> entries.

Example:

Beispiel $User3$

We currently ship two predefined macros: "$USER1$ and $USER2$". After the change, the macro $USER3$ is available for the path /var/lib/nagios/libexec-customer2.

The script "/usr/bin/createNagiosCfg.sh" is then executed, so that the configuration is saved and saved in the resource.cfg.
