I believe we may have some work coming up soon to improve the API - at the moment there are several pieces of functionality missing such as this one. > If I didn't miss it, do I have any option but to find a service check ID > and host ID and insert an appropriate mapping into > opsview.hostserviceeventhandlers, checking opsview.hostservicechecks to > make sure the service check I'm handling wasn't inherited from a > template, and inserting a service check mapping into > opsview.hostservicecheck if needed? Yes, it is possible to do it that way, but please make sure you back up your opsview database before making any changes. You are best using a perl script and the provided perl libraries to perform such as task as there are various helper functions for resolving templates and so on. There may be something useful in the utils directory you can use as a base. > > Finally, if that's my only option, do I need to do anything else to let > Opsview know the configuration for the host has been changed behind its > back so that the host's configuration gets properly created when the > configs are reloaded? At reload time all the config is pulled from the database so as long as the database changes are sane then you should be ok. In reference to the UI seeing the changes you should set 'uncommitted' on relevant objects in the DB so they get highlighted in the UI. We generally don't recommend manipulating the database like this, but it is probably your only option at this time. Duncs -- Duncan Ferguson Senior Developer/Support Engineer
