Help changeing host icons

Dear Forum.

I need to change the host icons on some of my view to help the staff with quick tasks.

Where do i change the icons and then add them to my view?

Hi bjerre,

you can add custom icons via the “custom icons” menu.
After you uploaded some icons you can assign them via the “Icon Image for hosts in status GUI” rule.

Not quite what i was looking for, i need to add a “Put host in downtime” button where it takes the sys admin to the this page for the host

Can this be done?

…I’m sure you can …

untested but one way would be

Create custom icon with custom link

the link to the API with it and ready

Point 6 should match

No you cant, because this “dropdown” is part of other views like hostproblems, srvproblems and so on and if it’s shown or not is controlled by javascript.

Maybe you can construct your own url to set the specific host to downtime. But I am not sure if this function will accept GET variables for this function. I never tried this.
