Hi, only Nagios knows the states of all the services of the host, so I think you cannot program such a plugin, that would know about results of the other services

I assume that it is rather trivial (even since i'm using ndoutils and can lookup the service states in db) to get the service-states out of nagios.

I think check_cluster does something like this too, but it's used for
a different purpose.

What I'm really interested in, is, if there are any dangerous pitfalls I could run in, when I use the service states to determine the host-state.
Has anybody ever used something like this ?

Hi,

I'd like to have a host-check plugin which considers a host as down if
all services are Critical (or unknown).

The usual host check command is to ping the hostaddress, but especially
for routers it does not mean, the router is down, when only the
main-ip-address is not pingable.

Does there exist any plugin that checks a host by by the current state
if it's  services ?
