If you can't monitor that thing, it's a bit more complicated. You want to normally receive notifications for the service unless some certain threshold count of them is reached. check_cluster could be useful here by making all the services above dependent on a cluster service check. If you set the check cluster threshold to say 5, I'd expect that you'd receive at most 5(ish) notifications (4 for per-service notifications + 1 for check_cluster itself). -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
