For Example:
I have some checks as "Check Load", "Check Memory", ... assigned to servicegroup "Linux OS Servicechecks"

These checks are also assigned to a hostgroup called "Linux Servers".
This hostgroup contains any hosts owned by different contacts.

So it should be possible that every contact can see the servicegroup "Linux OS Servicechecks" with service checks, owned by his hosts.

classic-ui: added option for partial servicegroups #2740

* adds new config option "show_partial_servicegroups"
* same behavior as "show_partial_hostgroups" just for servicegroups
* some bugs on "show_partial_hostgroups" where found and got fixed
* calculating and displaying of hostgroups in general should be faster now

Got so bored at the bus on the way home from Linux Hotel.
Someone owes me a beer now ;-)

that requires some nested loops to actually step from the servicegroup -> service -> host (-> hostgroup) and gather all the needed information to actually filter the authorization.

i guess this will add a performance impact, decreasing it slightly. though someone should profile that once implemented.

1. I still don't get it.

i guess this is sort of "partial servicegroups", like known from the partial hostgroup feature. though, as remarked in my first comment, parsing that information in nested loops will possibly decrease performance overall (unless there will be some auth pre-caching when first page opening like icinga-web does now)

Sorry here i am again ....i got no mail notification, so i can't answer to you.

This feature is still needed, i found some threads in www and i'm not the only one who needes this feature.

Let me explain again my problem.

I want, that i can summary some checks to one servicegroup, but to multiple hosts in different hostgroups. And every nagios user should see this servicegroup with only his own hosts.

Currently i only can assign this user to this servicegroup and the he will see all hosts, which have assigned this service.
Or i assign the user to hostgroup, the he only will see the servicegroup, if he is assigned to every host with this check.

believe me, this needs quite a bit of code to be changed.

I'm not sure why you don't get any notifications about this issue. But I don't agree with your tone of demanding stuff. It would be really helpful if you have a look at the code, checkout how "partial_hostgroup" is implemented and then try to write a patch I could apply and test.

And yes, now that I understood what you mean, I think it would be helpful to have this feature.

Cheers

requiring a feature requires resources to be assigned as well. since i am a bit out of resources currently (dayjob requires my full attention), i am not paying much attention to classic ui these days, only core and ido in a limited scope.

if this feature cannot be implemented by the core team (for free), someone might pay someone/somebody to implement it properly. by chance to do it based on the current source tree and pushing it back to upstream.

i would vote for closing this here, instead pointing to advanced restriction possibilities with icinga web. @ricardo - you too?

• Subject changed from show servicegroup if contacts hosts have services assigned to servicegroup to add option for partial servicegroups
• Assigned to set to ricardo
• Target Version set to 1.10
• Done % changed from 0 to 90

got bored on the bus home.

new config option:

# SHOW PARTIAL SERVICEROUPS
# By default (meaning the directive is not present or disabled), a user
# only sees a servicegroup and the hosts and services within it if they are an
# authorised contact for all of the hosts and services of the group.
# The behaviour can be changed using the directive show_partial_servicegroups=1.
# When enabled, the serviceroups overview will show a partial listing of hosts
# and services that the user is an authorised contact for within each servicegroup.
# It will also add the string "(Partial Servicegroups Enabled)" to the top of
# the Servicegroup Overview to help prevent any confusion over whether the option
# is in use or not. However for privacy reasons, servicegroups that are only showing
# a partial listing are not specifically indicated.
#
# Values: 0 - disabled, user only sees full servicegroups (default)
#         1 - enabled, user sees partial servicegroups

show_partial_servicegroups=0

in current "feature/add_partial_servicegroups-2740"

please test.
