You'll have to define special commands and escalation path .
you can have the first "notification" trigger an action that - using nrpe or
check_via_ssh will
connect to the server an attempt the action you want .
define serviceescalation{
host_name host
service_description check http
first_notification 1
last_notification 1
notification_interval 1
contact_groups restart
}
define contact{
contact_name restart
service_notification_period 24x7
host_notification_period 24x7
service_notification_options c
service_notification_commands restart_service
}
# 'restart_service' command definition
define command{
command_name restart_service
command_line $USER1$/check_via_ssh -H $HOSTADDRESS$
`/etc/init.d/httpd restart`
}
just an example , you'll ofcourse have to tweek it to your needs , but this is
a possible way to
go .
