newbie question...I have a service defined in my services.cfg file that looks like this: define service { use generic-service host_name myserver service_description PING check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60% }in my hosts file have "myserver" defined with an address tag: www.myserver.com <http://www.myserver.com>when the check_ping command runs, does it check the ping status against www.myserver.com <http://www.myserver.com> even though I'm not specifically specifying the host in the check_ping command?
The "check_ping" command in your service definition is *not* a reference to the "check_ping" plugin, it's a reference to the "check_ping" check command defined somewhere else in your config. Normally that command will call a plugin (in this case, most likely check_ping) with some set of arguments, which in most cases include the address of the host on which the service was defined.
