The status map in nagos is generated automatically. You have to set a parent host for each host in the define host statement of the host. See an example:

define host{
        use             generic-host          
        host_name       host
        address         1.2.3.4
        parents         other-host
}

It also accepts multiple parents. But notice: there must be also a define host statement for the parent host.

  • It is possible to define co-ordinates in host definitions. That's what OP is asking about, I think.

  • @muru you can define custom variables, but if you want real maps like this sysadmins.ru/files/nagvis_819.gif you need nagvis.

  • No need for custom variables. Look at 2d_coords and 3d_coords in nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/nagioscore/4/en/… - they aren't real maps like nagvis, but they are built-in options.
