This is by design, and it is only a warning message. The config is valid and should work as you intended.

Maybe drop the IP address? I dunno, maybe cuz you have both IP and

its causing problems. Maybe its replying on the IP, but not on the

Re: [Nagios-users] Notification did not execute
Your should look at the log before the service notification
was suppressed because the host was down. I'm 90% sure the reason why your
host down notification was not sent was because the host was in a soft
state type and came back online before it was determined to be in a hard
state. And you didn't post your linux-server template config so you will
have to check your and retry_interval definition.
For my host objects I set a retry_interval of 1 and max_check_attemps of 2
in the template so I get notified a little quicker when a host goes down.

Re: [Nagios-users] sms alert notification in Nagios 3.4.1
As Net Warrier said, using your phone company's email-to-text service is tons easier than setting up your own sms/mms server. I've tried nagios_csmpp plugin but never got it to work.

[1346198377] HOST ALERT: hostname;UP;SOFT;3;PING OK - Packet loss =
0%, RTA = 4.84 ms
This is weird.
Thanks for your time and support
Regards
2012/8/28 Travis Runyard travisruny...@gmail.com:
Your should look at the log before the service notification was
suppressed
because the host was down. I'm 90% sure the reason why your host down
notification was not sent was because the host was in a soft state type
and
came back online before it was determined to be in a hard state. And you
didn't post your linux-server template config so you will have to check
your
and retry_interval definition.
For my host objects I set a retry_interval of 1 and max_check_attemps of
2
in the template so I get notified a little quicker when a host goes down.

Any idea what could be wrong?, I got some notification with other host

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios Config Help
Thats depends on what you feel is acceptable and your environment. I have my normal check at 5, retry at 2 and max attempts at 2. That allows for a decently fast notification for me. I might even change the retry to 1 since i dont manage a huge environment, nagios takes like 2% cpu on a single vcpu vm.

These issues will hopefully be fixed in the next release of the Nagios Plugins; until then, check_ping -4 [...] should do the trick.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_ping strange behavior with google
Long option and short option achieve the same thing, which requires an IP address. I have tried it out, on two separate nagios boxes, one running Debian, the other, Redhat. Why don't you copy and paste the results from shell to prove me wrong?

NOT hostname. Indeed, host_address seems to suggest an IP address. Then again, the long option is called --hostname :-) Anyway, you can specify either an IP address or a hostname. Why don't you simply try it out? $HOSTADDRESS$ - Address of the host. This value is taken from the *address* directive in the host definition You neither have to hand over the $HOSTADDRESS$ to check_ping (you could use the $HOSTALIAS$ or whatever you like instead), nor do you have to specify an IP address as the address of a host.¹ We use only hostnames in our Nagios configuration.

Re: [Nagios-users] check_ping strange behavior with google
Hats off to you, Holger. It does work but I was using google.com which doesn't. Strange because it is pingable but returns network unreachable with check_ping. Hey at least I learned something today.
