Hi, I am trying to get some of the dependency stuff working in Nagios.
I have a very simple system: Machine A .... Router B ..... Internet .... machine C I use the following to show the relationship: define host{ use linux-server host_name A parents B } 1) The 'status map' shows nagios as being somehow between A & B, whereas it is on A (ie it runs on A). Is there a way that I can tell nagios that it is on A ? 2) I check that DNS is still working thus: define service{ use local-service host_name A service_description DNS Access check_command check_dns } How do I say that this depends on B ? ... I don't want warnings just because the router is dead. I also check (twice/day) that the clock on A is accurate, that will only work if NTP works, ie also depends on B, but is very much tied to A.
