Hi Sundar,
Check your etc/objects/templates.cfg file and make sure that the
following default template is defined;
define host{
name windows-server ; The name of this host template
use generic-host ; Inherit default values from
the generic-host template
check_period 24x7 ; By default, Windows servers
are monitored round the clock
check_interval 5 ; Actively check the server
every 5 minutes
retry_interval 1 ; Schedule host check retries
at 1 minute intervals
max_check_attempts 10 ; Check each server 10 times
(max)
check_command check-host-alive ; Default command to
check if servers
are "alive"
notification_period 24x7 ; Send notification out at any
time - day or night
notification_interval 30 ; Resend notifications every 30
minutes
notification_options d,r ; Only send notifications for
specific host states
contact_groups admins ; Notifications get sent to the
admins by default
hostgroups windows-servers ; Host groups that Windows
servers should
be a member of
register 0 ; DONT REGISTER THIS - ITS JUST
A TEMPLATE
}
This should be there by default, but it sounds like your configuration
is missing this definition for some reason. It may be commented out by
default, I can't remember - but if so, just uncomment it.
