[Monarch-users] Status Map Ugly Now

[Don C. <Col...@or...>]

I have recentlly started using Groundwork Monitor Architect to maintain an 
existing Nagios installation. Im using GMA 1.3 with Nagios 1.2. Once i 
started using GMA it converted my host extended info config file to look 
similar to the following.

define hostextinfo {
                host_name                       va-apc-3
                use                                     Black Box
                2d_coords                       3515,1090
}

define hostextinfo {
                name                                  Black Box
                icon_image                      black_box.jpg
                vrml_image                      black_box.jpg
                statusmap_image          black_box.gd2
                register                        0
}


While the above format is cleaner, there is a problem I believe with using 
it this way (at least for me.. maybe im missing something)


Previouslly I had image names for each host definition as well instead of 
making it grab em from the template, when I use the below method my images 
look good, when I use the above method my gif files etc arent showing all 
colors and look funky. The example I used here uses jpg but some of my 
definitions use gif and gd2 images that have transparency to make the map 
look pretty :) So the difference seems to be that all hosts have there 
images specified as well as what template was used. Any Ideas/suggestions 
to fix my issue?



define hostextinfo {
    use                         Black Box
    host_name                   va-apc-3
    icon_image                  black_box.jpg
    vrml_image                  black_box.jpg
    statusmap_image     black_box.gd2
    2d_coords                   3515,1090
}

define hostextinfo {
    name                Black Box
    icon_image                  black_box.jpg
    vrml_image                  black_box.jpg
    statusmap_image     black_box.gd2
    register    0
}
