Instead of showing the status map we developed an application that reads the nagios status.dat file and builds a high level status view of the monitored environment. In doing this we get to display the status of business processes/applications instead of just host status (we could show that if we wanted to configure it like that), which is often much more meaningful (and simple) for non-IT staff. For example the email system might be made up of an external SMTP server, an internal mail/database server, a SPAM filter server, an anti-virus scanner etc. We might combine these hosts and all or some of their services and then rollup the individual statuses to a single overall status. Take a look at the following documentation page: <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.smartmon.com.au/docs/tiki-index.php?page=High+Level+Status&highlight=high%20level%20status">http://www.smartmon.com.au/docs/tiki-index.php?page=High+Level+Status&highlight=high%20level%20status</a> Take a look at the nagios status.dat file and write your own application to present the information you need. Another alternative might be to take a look at Nagvis.

Senior management have finally noticed what I have done and want to use Nagios to display the network status on a large display so anyone walking past the IT area can see at a glance what is going on with the network. The only issue with this is I can't get the network map to fit on a 1080p display without going off the edges thus rendering the display idea useless. Is there any way to alter the statusmap cgi page so that the information boxes at the top of the page are placed at the bottom of the page? Or alternatively is there any way to alter the scaling factor permanently?
