First, thank you all for any help that you can provide. Here is the problem that I am having, I hope someone can help point out something obvious that I have missed.
1) Hosts are being monitored just fine, status map shows red when a host goes down, event log shows alerts like it should. 2) Timeframes are set for 24/7 3) All host and service notifications are enabled 4) email address is correct 5) All hosts services are, at a minimum, set for w,c,u,r 6) If I go to a service or host and click on the link "Send custom host notification" it will send the notification without "forcing" it so I know that the timeframes are being read correctly and this also verifies the email address is correct and the mail send is working. 7) The event log doesn't show that it's even trying to send a notification when something alerts. Running Nagios Version 3.2.0 And here is a snippet from my configuration files, all hosts/services are set up identically: define contact { contact_name nagiosadmin alias Nagios Admin host_notification_options d,u,r,f,n service_notification_options w,u,c,r,f,n email supp...@mowisp.com pager ch...@mowisp.net host_notification_period 24x7 service_notification_period 24x7 host_notification_commands notify-host-by-email service_notification_commands notify-service-by-email } define contactgroup { contactgroup_name admins alias Nagios Administrators members nagiosadmin } define host { name Default_timeperiod_interval_5 register 0 max_check_attempts 2 check_interval 5 retry_interval 1 notification_interval 60 notification_options d,u,r,f,s,n active_checks_enabled 1 passive_checks_enabled 0 notifications_enabled 1 check_freshness 0 } define service { name Default_timeperiod_interval_5 register 0 max_check_attempts 2 check_interval 5 retry_interval 1 notification_interval 60 notification_options w,u,c,r,f,s,n active_checks_enabled 1 passive_checks_enabled 0 notifications_enabled 1 check_freshness 0 } define timeperiod { timeperiod_name 24x7 alias 24 Hours A Day, 7 Days A Week sunday 00:00-24:00 monday 00:00-24:00 tuesday 00:00-24:00 wednesday 00:00-24:00 thursday 00:00-24:00 friday 00:00-24:00 saturday 00:00-24:00 } define host { host_name Miller Silo 900 Sector 1 address 10.90.16.1 check_command check-host-alive notification_interval 60 notification_options d,u,r,f,n max_check_attempts 3 active_checks_enabled 1 passive_checks_enabled 0 notifications_enabled 1 check_period 24x7 notification_period 24x7 contact_groups admins parents Miller Silo CMM use Default_timeperiod_interval_5 } define service { service_description check_ping check_command check_ping!20,80%!30,90% host_name Miller Silo 900 Sector 1 check_period 24x7 notification_period 24x7 contact_groups admins notification_interval 60 notification_options w,u,c,r,f,n max_check_attempts 3 check_interval 5 retry_interval 1 active_checks_enabled 1 passive_checks_enabled 0 notifications_enabled 1 check_freshness 0 freshness_threshold 86400 } ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Return on Information: Google Enterprise Search pays you back Get the facts. http://p.sf.net/sfu/google-dev2dev _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
