hi all,

its possible to change default views for all users at once ?
I want add a column, and this for all users at once.

You need to write a script which make a sed over all user in ~/var/check_mk/web

thanks for your answer @ChristianM, so thats the only possible way!
I want to change allservices view, and I think all users have access to this view, and this view is not in user_views.mk by default… hm

If you edit a built-in view and publish it for all users with all your modifications it’ll do you what you need.

Cheers,

Thanks @ricardoftribeiro, Yes that’s what I want, but where is the location ? Path?

Basically the user path that edited or created (owner) that view in ~/var/check_mk/web//user_views.mk
Every view edited or created with the flag “public” : True

Hope it helps.

Cheers,

e.g when I edit the allservices and set public: True, all users will see this view, but they will see 2 allservices view or not ?

If it’s the same name like the built-in view all users will see the custom one instead of the buil-in.

As far as I know this behavior will apply to all versions.

But if a user creates a view with the same name like the built-in and doesn’t use puplic he will see his own custom view instead of your custom ‘global’ view.

Thank you both… it works, by the way you can do that also with a contact_group…not only public

I am on an older version, I don’t have this function yet :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

:smiley: Publish to members of contact groups: to contact group X, so the allservices is for CG X as “default”…
