Ah ha! Now I see. In any event, I find that Icinga's "All Unhandled Problems" CGI page (in the "Classic" GUI) is usually where I "park" my operational duties. Maps are nice, don't get me wrong, and I suspect in your application, now that I seem to have a better handle on it, could benefit from NagVis and using floor-plans of your building as the starting-point and then placing each object on those drawings to form the map that will get displayed someplace. That'll tell you not just that something dropped dead but also *where* it is at a glance; however, that won't tell you *what* it is, just that you have a body to deal with.
