I just installed ngrt4n (I got many problems with the poor documentation).
Seem very bugged (but is noted as beta) and I didn't like the main thing at
all.
Having the dashboard using a ssh and X forward system is not very handy.
The same thing using web interface would be a better idea.
As follows:
/usr/bin/printf %b * TRW Automotive SA *\n\nNotification Type:
$NOTIFICATIONTYPE$\n\nService: $SERVICEDESC$\nHost: $HOSTNAME$\nDescription:
$HOSTALIAS$\nAddress: $HOSTADDRESS$\nState: $SERVICESTATE$\n\nDate/Time:
$LONGDATETIME$\n\nAdditional
This is kind of what I did when testing backup system. I had a process
tailing the nagios.log and when it got incoming messages it would just
forward a copy to the other server so all but passive checks the
secondary system appeared to be the same as the primary. Seemed to work
pretty well.

Hello list,
my problem is that I'm using vmware esx with multiple virtual hosts on it. In
my nagios config the esx server is the parent so if it goes down, I only get
one notification, which is what i want.
My problem is that my unreachable hosts turn to down after my esx comes up
again and it
The only problem with this is that you can't have passive checks
(easily) coming into two systems, where we have so many hosts that we
can't do active on everything, hence the reason for forwarding of
certain log entries. Plus, it's very lightweight compared with parsing
the .dat files all the
write an event handler which will be triggered while the parent system
comes up from down.
this handler will schedule a downtime for each child systems, during
the downtime Nagios won't send notifications;
or this handler can send a passive check with status OK for each
children, the hard/soft
