Intro

Nagios is a popular open-source computer system and network monitoring software application. It monitors hosts and services, alerting users when problems occur and again when they improve. Use Domo’s Nagios connector to query data for different reports that are available on your computer system. You can connect to your Nagios account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Nagios connector user interface. To add DataSets, set update schedules, and edit DataSet information, see Adding a DataSet Using a Connector.
