I read the first section. I guess it means that if it is determined that
a host is down then it does not check for its corresponding services and
so I am not getting a mail.
But I do still get a mail for databases and ssh going down. It is only
for ping service check that I am not getting mails.
I am sending mails for check-host-alive and check_ping to 2 different
people and I cannot club them together.
This is because in check-host-alive I get mails even a machine reboots
and I do not want these mails.
So I have introduced a delay in my service checks, as suggested by you
Marc earlier. So on unix based machines im checking for ssh and on
windows I am checking for ping. The ssh check triggers a mail rightly if
a server goes down, how can I make this happen for ping check too?
Please help,
Thanks you,
lalita

Probably. See the first section of
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/networkreachability.html. Sounds
like you might need to add the service PING contacts to the host
contacts.
