Curse Evolution's reply behavior. Now with cc-list goodness.
Have you specified a check_command in the host definition? If one is
specified, when a service check fails, Nagios will run the host
check_command and suppress reporting failures of other service checks on
the host.
define host{
name generic-host
notifications_enabled 1
event_handler_enabled 1
flap_detection_enabled 1
failure_prediction_enabled 1
process_perf_data 1
retain_status_information 1
retain_nonstatus_information 0
register 0
check_command check-host-alive
}
define command {
command_name check-host-alive
command_line $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w
3000.0,80% -c 5000.0,100% -p 1
}
All of my hosts inherit ("use") generic-host. If you're not into
templates, specify "check_command check-host-alive" in each host
definition.
Or am I missing your intent?
