Edit your devicedetails.asp file to make that field show big and bold. Maybe even put it at the top of the page. As for a page with all of the fields, you could create an asp page that would go through all of the maps and list their NOTES fields. Once you had that page written you could do anything you wanted with it. You could have it popup when you go to a page. You could put a link to it in your header page. You could also create a program notification that would clear out the NOTES field for that device when it came up. For that matter, if you didn't want to use the NOTES field because it was used for other things already, you could create a folder under your WUG web folder. In that folder have text files for each downed item. Something based off the host name (HOSTNAME.txt). Then use the INCLUDE tag to add that file to the devicedetails.asp page. Then your program notification would only have to delete that file. A lot easier to write a batch file for that.

I would like to see something right along with that but a lot stronger. lets say they add something like the "NOTES" field except call it "TroubleTicket" or something along those lines. Then ANY info in that field would display IN YOUR FACE when your are on the device. That way ALL techs would know what is going on. Also somehow tie all of those from a link off of the root page. (something that scrolls, something that pops up or maybe something you have to click) Then to help on clean up make all of those TroubleTicket entries clean up when the device/service/etc is up X number of polls. It could also send an e-mail stating it was cleaned up. Along with that a TRUE calendar would be nice to schedule events months out or even recurring. And of course %IF% CHANGE_NOT_SAVED after X polls THEN e-mail.... That would fix their little red wagon. Or simply %IF% CHANGE_MADE regardless send e-mail. I feel your pain brother, I have about 10,000 items checked and hate it when I see something stupid like that. Double Argh!

Is it possible to make some sort of indication that shows which item(s) have been modified? Maybe placing a colored asterisk in the upper left corner of the icon of the device? (similar to the SNMP marker on those devices). It's quite time consuming when you have scores of items in a single map and you need to find out what has changed. I keep pretty close tabs on our monitoring system - but have some helping hands on staff that aren't as well disciplined to log changes - or save them. It's always a nice surprise to get a call from a customer that we are supposed to notify of an outage because their alerts have been disabled during the last maintenance window. Argh! Thanks!
