Nagios configuration files can become quite big and eventually nearly unmanagable. You lose the overview and what you are looking for is probably in the middle of another 5000 line .cfg file. I came up with the idea to centralize a whole nagios configuration in a single Excel file. In Excel one can manage multiple objects at once and have a great overview of what’s happening. This small tool converts every worksheet in an excel file to its own nagios .cfg file. Editing has become really easy.
