Show a link to the discovery rule in "parameters for this service"

22 votes

When looking at the parameters of a service, it is sometimes unclear what controls the service name. Experienced users know the concept of "discovery rules" and which discovery rule applies. For new users, "Discovery rules" are very hard to find. Adding the link would make that much easier.

HI Lars, I think both request address their own purpose. This is a general feature to show the discovery rule used. The request you have linked above is specific about the PS check

Hello,

Thank you for your idea. On this portal, we carefully evaluate ideas to ensure that they will benefit a wide range of users. Thus, we close ideas not fulfilling certain criteria:

- Suggestions with low user interest: created more than 1 year ago with 5 votes or less
- Suggestions with no momentum: no votes in the last 6 months

While your idea would normally be closed based on the clean-up criteria, we have decided to keep it open.

The decision to keep the idea open can be due to the number of votes / comments the idea has received or due to high alignment with our current product strategy or overlapping with ongoing roadmap work.

Please consider that this does not guarantee that your idea will be implemented.

Warm regards,
Your Checkmk Team
