[Nagios-users] Odd Entries in the Availability report
Hello List . I have encountered an odd occurrence in the Availability reports I produce . When i dig to see Full view , i have many entries of Program restart (attached below ) , but there are no matching records in the nagios log to indicate a reload or a restart was issues . Has any one ever experienced such behaviour from nagios previously ? I am using 3.2.0 from source on SLES 10.2 64 bit .

[Nagios-users] Follow Up: [Q] Service config, go critical:HARD; Alert every 5 minutes until non-critical
Roderick A. Anderson wrote: My Nagios foo must leave a lot to be desired. 8-( I have not been able to figure out the correct combination of service definition settings to get a check to go CRITICAL:HARD on the first try (no SOFT alerts), and keep sending alerts (every five minutes) until the check/alert clears. Either the complete answer or a clue-stick whack (the settings I should be looking at) would be greatly appreciated. My thanks to all for your suggestions and ideas. I now have it working correctly without even having to run a test. ;-) Had a hardware failure yesterday that triggered the Service. :-( It kept sending notifications every five minutes until the problem was solved. \\||/ Rod -- TIA, Rod -- ThinkGeek and WIRED's GeekDad team up for the Ultimate GeekDad Father's Day Giveaway.

Re: [Nagios-users] Escalate after X warnings or criticals
I had submitted a patch a while back that allows for distinguishing between warning and critical. I don't think it's going to be included in any 3.0.X releases, because it apparently breaks plugins that access Nagios' state data directly. I don't know whether or not my patch will be included in 3.2.x or higher releases. You can grab my patch (which I'm applying to vanilla 3.0.6 Nagios sources) out of this thread. At the time I wrote it, it also patched cleanly against HEAD, but I haven't kept up with it. http://article.gmane.org/gmane.network.nagios.devel/7083/ -Gius -Original Message- From: Mike Lindsey [mailto:mike-nag...@5dninja.net] Sent: Tuesday, June 15, 2010 8:11 PM To: Nagios Users List Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Escalate after X warnings or criticals If it hasn't, I'll be adding it myself and will be happy to submit my patches back.

Re: [Nagios-users] Escalate after X warnings or criticals
Erk, you're going to want this one, it includes directives for host states as well as unknown service states. It's got some docs in it as well, but the docs don't patch cleanly against 3.0.6. http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.network.nagios.devel/7083 -Gius -Original Message- From: Gius, Mark Sent: Wednesday, June 16, 2010 10:25 AM To: Nagios Users List Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Escalate after X warnings or criticals I had submitted a patch a while back that allows for distinguishing between warning and critical.

Re: [Nagios-users] Looking for an alternative user interface with more advanced features
Thank you for all your suggestions. Sorry, I got no guts for 'bleeding edge' technology, and would like to sleep peacefully at night, though I will follow up on Ninja's development for future upgrades. Patrick's suggestions are great, simple, tried and true, and will fit our requirements. Thanks again.
