Registering Nagios Manager
Nagios is a network monitoring tool. It can monitor both hosts and services, warning when happening the problems and also when the problems are solved. The Hosts are equipment and Services are resources offered by the equipment.
The objective of this functionality is to register and maintain the managers that will be responsible for monitoring the configuration items and event occurrences captured from Nagios. It allows the user to inform when the Manager will be processed, which configuration items will manage and the actions to be taken automatically.
This feature provides a variety of actions, such as including, changing, and deleting a Nagios manager.
