Thanks, I think we currently do something along those lines. It's more so that our user support desk or even users ( I work in a university ) can easily spot if a service (not service in the opsview sense since a fair few things are load balanced) is having issues. I.e. a single viewport page which lists a range of our services, exchange being one of them, and a simple sign of if they're working fine or having issues. That way we can deal with the solution to the issue rather than dealing with users telling them were dealing with it, if you see what I mean.
Most of the staff and students are quite capable of clicking a link and seeing if their problem might be known in a simple way but wouldn't know that "login node 1 SG1 MS1" (there's another 40 odd of them, let alone other things) is critical might mean that their emailbox might not be working. It's really just to make an easy view for people not in the know to be able to quickly see if there is an issue with something they might use, and for myself and team possibly adding it to my custom igoogle homepage so that we have a 1 stop view of all provided services and if there's an issue with any of them without risking a page worth to wade through - if each service have 2 issues each it could be a long list.

For example we currently have exchange in a viewport, the initial thinking was that we'd easily be able to see if there was an issue, possibly showing the viewport to users. However the viewport is a silly number of scrolls long so becomes mildly pointless. I was wondering if it is possible to have a viewport monitoring that viewport (in this example exchange but could be any of the main services), so that if all items are up the top level viewport would indicate in one line that exchange was green, if some of the items in the (exchange) viewport are down then orange, if all down then red. Is this possible in opsview? I realised it would be very useful after seeing something of the like in a SCOM system display.
