Hi all,
I'm quite new to nagios and I would like to be able to configure the
service check_period, to be the same as the host witch this service
belongs to. I mean I've got 3 type of hosts, and I've defined the
services for this 3 types of hosts. It can be thousands (even few
hundreds) hosts for one host type, and I want to be able to change one
hosts check_period and then ALL the servcies for that hosts get its
check_period changed accordingly, but without to write explicity them.
Is this possible?
Heres a little scenario of what I'm trying:
# template for host type 1
define host
{
name type1-template
check_period default
[...]
register 0
}
#host1
define host
{
host_name host1
[...]
hostgroups type1
use type1-template
}
define host
{
host_name host2
[...]
hostgroups type1
use type1-template
}
#template for services of type1 hosts
define service
{
name type1-service-template
hostgroup_name type1
check_period default
[...]
register 0
}
#service for type1 hosts
define service
{
service_description service1
[...]
}
What i would like is that when I change the check_period for the host1
(rewriting its template value), the check_period of all services
related to this hosts, get its check_timeperiod changed accordingly
without affecting the rest of the hosts.
I'm absolutely lost here, the only thing that comes to my mind is to
rewrite heach service and set the ckeck_timeperiod accordingly, but I
don't like this way.
Cheers,
Marc.
