We have Nagios running its checks just fine. What have a mix network of
Windows and UNIX Servers. We have a windows server running NRPE_NT
which we run all our WMI Checks from for each of the windows hosts. We
send our checks to this host it submits a WMI Query to the correct host
then sends back the response. This is working just find with out any
problems. We had a problem last week where the NRPE_NT service stopped
accepting checks and started a ping flood. That is the background and
here is my question. Can we resolve this making this Server running
NRPE_NT the parent of all our windows service checks? What we would
like to do is if a service goes down it then runs the check on the
parent to see if it is up. If the parent is not up then it suppresses
all the alerts for all childs to the parent server. Is this possible, I
have tried a couple of configurations but have not been able to get this
to work.
Thank you,
Jeff
