Hi all, it has been a while since I last wrote something, but Nagios usually just works perfect ;)
But lately I stumbled over a small problem, which is really annoying. I'm using Nagios 2.9. Scenario is: Servicecheck goes WARNING during the night (escalation says: no SMS, only MAIL!) -> WARNING Mails are dispatched Servicecheck goes OK during night (escalation says: SMS and MAIL are both ok) -> RECOVERY Mails + SMS are dispatched I really wonder why Nagios sends RECOVERY though Channels, which never received the WARNING/CRITICAL. If nothing changed in the policies lately, Nagios should only send RECOVERY to someone who got the WARNING/CRITICAL at first. The WARNING are send via Mail to NETWORK-CONTACTGROUP-MAIL, which contains a set of contacts for Mail. The RECOVERY instead is send to NETWORK-CONTACTGROUP-SMS, which contain a different set of contacts, that carry the pager number. Again: we have 2 different contacts for each person, one for mail, one for SMS! So the RECOVERY goes to a contact that didn't even receive the WARNING/CRITICAL in first place - that's what disturbs me most, despite the fact that unwanted SMS at 5am are quite disturbing too... Did anyone else notice this lately? Is anyone able to explain that behaviour to me? Config of the checks is as follows: (I have resolved all template inheritance to make it better readable - of course we do not set up things like that in real ;)) define service { name generic-SNMP max_check_attempts 2 normal_check_interval 1 retry_check_interval 1 active_checks_enabled 1 check_period 24x7 passive_checks_enabled 1 parallelize_check 1 obsess_over_service 1 flap_detection_enabled 1 process_perf_data 1 retain_status_information 1 retain_nonstatus_information 1 notification_interval 60 notification_period 24x7 notification_options w,u,c,r notifications_enabled 1 stalking_options w,u,c contact_groups NETWORK-CONTACTGROUP-MAIL host_name USV01 service_description USV_TEMPERATURE servicegroups SERVICEGROUP register 1 check_command check_snmp!my-secret-community!iso.3.6.1.4.1.1356.1.2.4.0!1!:37!99:42 notification_interval 10 stalking_options c,w,u notification_options c,w,u,r } Naturally all notifications get overridden by our escaltion settings: # # Daylight: SMS every 10 Mins at first occurence # define serviceescalation { name esc_service_verfuegbarkeit_1_1 first_notification 1 last_notification 0 notification_interval 10 escalation_period daylight_hours escalation_options c host_name USV01 service_description USV_TEMPERATURE contact_groups NETWORK-CONTACTGROUP-SMS } # # Night: SMS once at the second occurence # define serviceescalation { name esc_service_verfuegbarkeit_1_2 first_notification 2 last_notification 0 notification_interval 600 escalation_period night_hours escalation_options c host_name USV01 service_description USV_TEMPERATURE contact_groups NETWORK-CONTACTGROUP-SMS } # # 24x7: Recovery via SMS (only fires when SMS has been dispatched before) # define serviceescalation { name esc_service_verfuegbarkeit_1_3 first_notification 1 last_notification 0 notification_interval 600 escalation_period 24x7 escalation_options r host_name USV01 service_description USV_TEMPERATURE contact_groups NETWORK-CONTACTGROUP-SMS } # # 24x7: Always receive notifacations via Mail too # define serviceescalation { name esc_service_verfuegbarkeit_1_4 first_notification 1 last_notification 0 notification_interval 10 escalation_period 24x7 escalation_options c,w,u,r host_name USV01 service_description USV_TEMPERATURE contact_groups NETWORK-CONTACTGROUP-MAIL } I'd appreciate any light sched into this matter.
