Hi Patrick,
so what check do I suggest I add in fir the host?
For example my servers cfg uses check-server-alive for the host and check_ping
for the service.
But the hosts are ok in that scenario as I only want to know when the host is
up or down, I don't want to know when the service is critical.
But in the disk space scenario I only want to know when the service us critical
because the disk usage as hit the threshold, I don't need a host up our down
check notification.
hope this makes sense?

Hi all,
I have just setup Nagios to monitor the diskspace on my servers.
Nagios works fine monitoring and reporting diskspace but I cant get the
notifications to work properly.
I also ping all my servers and the PING checks I have send me host alerts to
say UP or DOWN but I have disabled service alerts as I don’t want them for the
PING check.
So I thought I would so the reverse and setup the disk check commands and
disable host alerts and just have service alerts for when said server goes over
the critical disk space limit I have sent.
Problem is no service alerts get sent out no matter how long the host is in
critical state!
If I enable host and service alerts for the disk check command I get host
alerts to say that the host is DOWN (which it isn’t its CRITICAL)
My test disk_check config file is located at the below link, thought it be best
to provide the whole lot rather than snippets.

Can anybody explain why I don’t get any service alerts when the host goes
CRITICAL and how I can get them please without having host alerts enabled as I
don’t want them for my disk check commands
Thankyou in advance
