[Nagios-users] Notifications configuration problem
Hi, I hope I am on the right place and if not please accept my apologies and simply ignore. I am usuing Nagios Core version 3.2.3 with check_mk v1.1.9i7 I am monitoring some servers on a different site and usuing ADSL line for this. I have problems with the ADSL Each time I get a notification that a server is down and then after 5seconds I get a notification that the server is up again. Is there a way to configure a notification that Nagios will think that it has a problem only if it is persistent more than 5 minutes or so?

This tells nagios how many times in a row the check must be in a non-OK state before it sends an alert. Combining max_check_attempts with the two interval settings (check_interval, retry_interval) determines how much time passes while those checks are being done. http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/nagioscore/3/en/objectdefinitions.html#service -- Simplify data backup and recovery for your virtual environment with vRanger.

[Nagios-users] Notifications configuration
I am setting up my first nagios instance, and I am trying to figure out how to set up the notifications. I would like to have any service that is a warning send an email, while any service that is critical send a page. I can not find in the configurations where I can set that threshold. Can someone please point me in the right direction?

Can someone please point me in the right direction? Nagios doesn't implement that type of logic. Some options that come to mind -- 1) Create a contact per status. contact1 that sends e-mails only does so for critical services; contact2 that sends pages only does so for warning services. 2) Have one contact but multiple notification commands (service_notification_commands service-notify-by-email,service-notify- by-pager). -by-email and -by-pager contain simple logic to only work for critical or warning respectively. 3) Create one contact with one notification command. That notification command contains the simple logic to send an e-mail or send a page depending on the notification type. 4) ... 5) Profit! This kind of configuration is discussed somewhat frequently on the list. The archives might provide more information. -- Marc -- Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H ___ 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
