How difficult would it be to make 'down' hosts appear at the TOP of the monitor tab?

It would just require a simple change to the SQL call. I would consider making this an option.

Hello (sorry for my english, it is not my language)

First your plugin and architecture are great (thanks for all who have worked on it)!

But I think we have to be careful ! Monitor does not have the same goal has Thold ....
I thought Monitor has the goal to do something like "What's Up" and HP-Openview views.
If it is, I think Monitor does put the host down at the Top only for an automatically generated view, but in the futur we need more views and the possibility to customized them. Example for some server and have several graphics for example like the visio template.

Hello

When you cannot wait until a new release, you can change the line 106 of monitor.php:

before
$sql = "SELECT description, status, hostname, cur_time, status_rec_date, availability FROM host where disabled = '' and monitor = 'on' ORDER BY description";

after
$sql = "SELECT description, status, hostname, cur_time, status_rec_date, availability FROM host where disabled = '' and monitor = 'on' ORDER BY status,description";

see post http://cactiusers.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=2706#2706

I've changed a little bit the monitor plugin to have the possibility to have my instant messaging and host down first.

Actually, the SVN version has a similar feature to "instant message" already. It allows you to set a message to display when a particular host is down. This is settable per host on the device edit page. This way you when different devices are handled by different people, the correct person can be notified.

Also, I do plan on adding the option to show the downed hosts first, and to also allow the message to be displayed on the top, or bottom.

I am also looking into allowing icon "themes", and even different sounds per device.

I tried getting festival (a linux voice synthesizer) to allow you to insert text into a box, and have it auto create the sound on the fly, but that had way too much overhead.

It would be also great if you set it up so that users could only see the nodes they have access rights to.

Don't want every user seeing every node on the network just there own. But I still want to be able to moniter every node in the network. ?

What about a monitering application to send an email when a host fails ?

poly, chrisgapske

Please see if the following contribution helps:
http://cactiusers.org/forums/topic895.html

It implements a tree view and access rights.

See the Thold plugin feature in alerts: "Dead Hosts notifications" which does exactly that.

Cacti doesn't track the uptime info in its host table, so the plugin is unable to display it at this time.
