Hi, What I did is to send the passive host check through NSCA only if its in hard state, soft states are ignored, what script do you use to call send_nsca ?

Thanks Marc, I found this answer from Ethan Galstad in the thread you posted: > Nagios 2 doesn't support a max_attempts directive for hosts and all > passive host check results will immediately force the host into a HARD > state. This has changed a bit in Nagios 3 - hosts do have a > max_attempts directive, but passive results still put the host into a > HARD state. I think the solution for me is to change the check-host-alive command to send more pings, that way one dropped packet on a remotely monitored box won't cause me to get woken up at some ungodly hour. The command_line I had for check-host-alive (not sure where I got it) seems somewhat silly to me: Original: $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 3000.0,80% -c 5000.0,100% -p 1 My Change: $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 1000.0,40% -c 5000.0,100% -p 5 Mike ------------------------------------------------------------------------ - 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.
