This is a clipping from my services.cfg:
#----------------- Generic service definition template -----------------
define service{
name generic-service
register 0
is_volatile 0
retry_check_interval 1
check_period 24x7
normal_check_interval 3
max_check_attempts 10
notifications_enabled 1
notification_interval 120
notification_period 24x7
notification_options c,u,r
retain_status_information 1
}
#-------ROUTER DEVICES----------------------#
define service{
use generic-service
hostgroup_name cisco-routers
service_description PING
contact_groups nw-admins
notifications_enabled 0
check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%
}
This is clippings from my nagios.cfg:
retain_state_information=1
state_retention_file=/usr/local/nagios/var/status.sav
enable_notifications=0
I want to turn off notifications for check_ping services in the hostgroup
named cisco-routers. Considering the above configuration; can you explain
why sometimes notifications for this group are sent, and sometimes they are
not? I can usually stop notifications by executing the CGI commands through
the web interface, this doesn't survive restarts. Thanks for your help.
