Hello folks!
We've made sure to set up the host parenting so that it correctly
reflects our network layout. I was under the impression that, should
a link fail, nagios would automatically assume the hosts behind it
were unreachable and, thus, supress the extra (obvious?) notifications.
For example, I have a network like this:
HOST 1 ---- NAGIOS_HOST
^
/ \
HOST 2 - - HOST 3
^
/ \
HOST 4 - - HOST 5
In the above diagram, if HOST 2 goes down, shouldn't the notifications
for HOST 4 and HOST 5 be suppressed, or if HOST 1 goes down, HOSTs
2-5? If that's not the way it works, any idea on how to get this
behavior? We have a large network and when a T1 or something goes
down, I'd like one notification: HEY! T1 is down, rather than 334 as I
did this past weekend for every host and service behind that T1.
Thanks for the pointers!
