Nagvis module does not draw the parent-child/dependecies relationship

Icinga Web Modules
1

Hello
I put below all information related to version of Icinga2, Nagvis module, etc.
I use icingadb

Nagvis module is installed. I can create a map (type automap) that display all my hosts if I use as root <<>>. So the Nagvis module seems to read icingadb and can display the hosts.
But Nagvis seems to not see the dependencies I define in icinga2. If I choose an host for root then only this host is diplayed.

I define dependencies with a parent.conf file :
apply Dependency “Parent” for (parent in host.vars.parents) to Host {
parent_host_name = parent
assign where host.address && host.vars.parents
}
and host file are like this. The parent of Mysecure is Server1.
object Host “Mysecure” {
import “linux-server”
address = “Mysecure”
vars.CheckType = “by_ssh”
vars.http_vhosts[“http”] = { http_uri = “/” }
vars.disk_warning = “7%”; vars.disk_critical = “4%”;
vars.parents = [ “Server1” ]
}

any suggestion to help investigating ?
Thank you in advance

Navgis does not support Icinga’s dependencies. I believe you can only create manual maps as the automatic map only supports standard host<->service dependencies.

But, keep an eye on news about Icinga in the coming weeks. There may be something involved that solves your problem. :wink:
