AW: Trying to limit number of service notification s

[Thomas.Zimmer at oppenheim.de]

To differ betwenn message 1-3 as email and 4/5 as pages, you´d have to
define different contact (one with email-address and another with
pager-address), build to different contactgroups, and assign the escalations
Paul described to these different groups.
 
i think the escalations should be:

define serviceescalation{

host_name *

service_description *

first_notification 1

last_notification 3

contact_groups email-group

notification_interval 1

}

define serviceescalation{

host_name *

service_description *

first_notification 4

last_notification 5

contact_groups pager-group

notification_interval 1

}

Betreff: [Nagios-users] Trying to limit number of service notifications


Hello all

I am needing to limit the number of service notifications that I receive.
My understanding is that I must user escalations.  I have included the entry
in my escalations.cfg.
Can anyone point out what I am doing wrong?  My host escalations work
perfectly.  After 3 notifications I get 2 pages and get no more
notifications until the recovery.

Thank you in advance.

Paul Harrison
