Hello --
We are running Icinga 1.6.1, and one of the configuration files being used is
the contactgroups.cfg file. This file was originally on a
Nagios 3.3.1 system, and was brought in to maintain the same notification
scheme on the new server. An excerpt of the file is
shown below:
# 'nt-admins' contact group definition
define contactgroup{
contactgroup_name nt-admins
alias NT Administrators
members icingaadmin,bil
}
# 'linux-admins' contact group definition
define contactgroup{
contactgroup_name linux-admins
alias Linux Administrators
members icingaadmin,cjm
}
# 'admins' contact group definition
# define contactgroup{
# contactgroup_name admins
# alias Nagios Administrators
# members icingaadmin,bil,cjm
# }
The current configuration has a separate recipient for the linux and windows
systems. The thinking is now to have both current
and future administrators get notifications for all alerts. To that end, a
revised version of the file that is being planned is the following:
# 'nt-admins' contact group definition
define contactgroup{
contactgroup_name nt-admins
alias NT Administrators
members icingaadmin,bil
}
# 'linux-admins' contact group definition
define contactgroup{
contactgroup_name linux-admins
alias Linux Administrators
members icingaadmin,cjm
}
# 'admins' contact group definition
define contactgroup{
contactgroup_name admins
alias Nagios Administrators
members icingaadmin,nt-admins,linux-admins
}
The hosts would all be reconfigured so the contact_groups value will read
admins as opposed to the other two groups. The question
that I had was the following:
1. Would the revised syntax work in the contactgroups.cfg file?
2. Do I need to comment out the linux-admins and nt-admins groups in that same
file?
Thanks.
