Sounds good. Already have the option to clone a server as new so will be a
small change.

Looks good.

 

Do you have plans to introduce the "template" and/or "group" concept?

 

e.g.  I have a template called "Windows"  Apply it to my windows servers,
they get defaults applied for thresholds.  Eg. Cpu is set to 80% warning,
disk is set to 75% full, certain services are checked, etc.

 

Another template called "Apache"  It gets process checks for http added to
the host.

 

My host called win-apache.example.com gets 2 templates applied to it.  You
can also override default settings for each host.

 

Concepts from bbconfigure on deadcat ;)  Makes large scale management much
easier.
