Hi I'm a relatively inexperienced Nagios user. I've got Nagios checking some Hosts and Services on our Mac and PC Servers. However I have a small problem/need which I hope the list can shed some light on. Nagios has the facility to monitor a URL and send an alert if the URL returns a certain response code (e.g. 500). Obviously this requires Nagios to send a request to the server, wait for a response, and then report a failure based on the response code. This works fine for sites that are either running (success response code) or not running (fail response code). However, what we would like to do is to be able to send alerts for sites that are running but are running very slowly. In this case it would take a long time for Nagios to receive a response from the server. Is it possible to configure Nagios to send an alert if it does not get any response from a URL within a given timeframe (e.g. 45 seconds, 1 minute etc)? I imagine this would require some kind of "request timeout" setting. How would I go about setting this up?
