Customising the tactical overview

[Christiaan Ehlers]

Ah thanks, that works well.  
Now is there any way to do this with the Tactical overview screen

Tactical overview refers to tac.cgi, now all the hosts and hostgroups have
been hardcoded into tac.c, so I assume there is no arguments that you can
pass to the tac.cgi to make it only look at certain host groups.

What would I need to change if I only want to compile a tac.cgi that just
displays for lets say the Linux hostgroup?

Has anybody ever modified tac.c such that it has the functionality described
above?

I believe that the Tactical Overview is all or nothing. It will only
show you status for all the hosts that you are a contact for, not a
subset.

This is easier. Simply edit share/side.html and add links to the
following pages --

http://your.nagios.host/cgi-bin/status.cgi?hostgroup=Linux&style=detail
http://your.nagios.host/cgi-bin/status.cgi?hostgroup=Windows&style=detai
l


Those presume that you have hostgroups named 'Linux' and 'Windows'
exactly. You can figure out exactly what you need by displaying the page
you want in your browser, right click and select Properties to get the
url.
