Dear List, I run Icinga on a VPS monitoring about 40 public services at my site. I've increased the timeout value for most of my individual service checks using the appropriate command line argument (45-60 seconds). Yesterday checks were taking longer to complete due to some network latency issues between the VPS and my site, exceeding the 45-60 timeout and sending out a critical alert.. Now to fix this issue and increase my timeouts to say 90 seconds would it be best for me to edit each individual service definition, edit the check command directly, or change the service_check_timeout directive in the main config file? I know by default most plugins timeout after 10 seconds and by default icinga enforces its own timeout on all service checks that is set to 30 seconds. What exactly does this mean? That by default Icinga will wait 40 seconds before sending a critical alert? Not exactly sure what the service_check_timeout directive in the main config file actually does...
