Yes. Set the contacts so they don't receive alerts using service_notification_options. See the docs about contact configuration here: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/xodtemplate.html#contact > 2.

That's normal -- host checks will run serially as fast as they can. See the docs on host checks here: http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/checkscheduling.html#host_checks > 3.

If you don't want host check functionality, use a host check that will never go down (check_dummy is a good plugin to use for this). ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
