Do you ever need to reboot or do maintenance on your Windows Server? Then if the server is monitored by NetEye, you’ll surely want to mark it in downtime so as not to have notifications sent out for problems arising due to maintenance, and/or to be able to have the correct SLA marked for your…

Add Host Custom Variables to the Service Overview

Custom Variables are widely used in the NetEye 4 (Icinga) monitoring system in order to tag/add information to a host/service. In order to speed up setting these variables, users use the inheritance mechanism to inherit them from parent objects (i.e. hosts). This feature is very useful, but sometimes it can create some doubt about what…

In a system with many tenants, the most complex aspect is probably the proper and orderly management of user permissions.

A Custom Dashboard for Windows and Linux Servers

The performance graphs present in NetEye are very useful for getting an immediate idea of the trend related to a service check, but they’re still limited to the metric being viewed. Also, the “Show all graphs” option available from the Actions menu of each monitored Host can have different usage limits due to the presence…
