[Nagios-users] Problem with Service Escalation 3.0rc3

2008-03-04 Thread Klaus 
Dear All,
 
as stated above, I am running nagios 3.0rc3 and I seem to have a lack of
understanding.
I should state that I am new to nagios.
 
I plan to have a host and service escalation for all hosts (with their
associated services) belonging to a specific hostgroup. So here is what I
have so far:
 
define hostgroup{
hostgroup_namegroup1
alias group1
}
 
define contact{
contact_name   groupNetwork
usegeneric-contact
alias  groupNetwork
email   mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED]
}
 
define host{
usewindows-server
host_name  host1
alias  Host 1
hostgroups group1
address10.0.0.1
parentsDUSSW00
contacts   defaultContact
}
 
define hostescalation{
hostgroup_namegroup1
contacts  groupNetwork
first_notification1
last_notification 0
notification_interval 120
escalation_period workhours
}
define serviceescalation{
service_description*
hostgroup_name group1
contacts   groupNetwork
first_notification 1
last_notification  0
notification_interval  120
escalation_period  workhours
}
 

When I try to start nagios, it tells me that it Could not expand services
specified in service escalation.
 
The plan is to send a mail to defaultContact 24x7 and to groupNetwork only
in the working hours. When I remove the service escalation, I only get
notifications when the host is down (guess this is by design).
 
Is there any other way how I can achieve this?
 
Any help is very much appretiated.
 
Cheers
Klaus

Hi, 

yes I have. This is only a short extract of my configuration. I have about
370 services defined on 54 hosts.
But you are right, I forgot to add this part of configuration. Sorry.. Here
is a more complete one...

hostgroup_namegroup1
alias group1
}

define contact{
contact_name   groupNetwork
usegeneric-contact
alias  groupNetwork
email  [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] 
}

define host{
usewindows-server
host_name  host1
alias  Host 1
hostgroups group1
address10.0.0.1
parentsDUSSW00
contacts   defaultContact
}

define service{
service_description SMTP
use generic-service
  hostgroup_namegroup1
check_command   check_smtp
process_perf_data   1
action_url
/nagios/pnp/index.php?host=$HOSTNAME$srv=$SERVICEDESC$
} 

define hostescalation{
hostgroup_namegroup1
contacts  groupNetwork
first_notification1
last_notification 0
notification_interval 120
escalation_period workhours
}

define serviceescalation{
service_description*
