Notifications question

Hi,
There is no entry in maillog because I'm not using the default Linux mail client, but a perl script called sendEmail.pl.
I'm going to raise logging level to see if there's anything wrong.
By the way, I've checked and even two services from the same host (using the same template) are giving me problems, since one service notifies me, but the other doesn't.
I'm testing with custom notifications, but happens the same when I do passive checks to automatically generate notifications.
Best regards,
Bruno Martins

Hello list,
I have a server running Nagios 3.4.1 under CentOS 6.3 and I have spent some hours trying to find why some (but not all) service notifications simply don't get to my mailbox, even though they appear in nagios.log file.
This is my contact definition:
define contact {
contact_name helpdesk
alias Helpdesk User
host_notifications_enabled 1
service_notifications_enabled 1
host_notification_period 24x7
service_notification_period 24x7
host_notification_options d,r
service_notification_options w,c,r
host_notification_commands host-notify-by-email
service_notification_commands notify-by-email
can_submit_commands 1
email user at domain.com<mailto:user at domain.com>
register 1
}
This contact is part of WISESRV-critical group.
This host is sending out notifications:
define host {
host_name FLAGSRV_imagina
alias DC da Flag
address x.y.z.q
parents RUMOSRD_rlxfw01-rumos
use Server
register 1
}
And this host is not:
define host {
host_name RUMOSSRV_rlxfs01
alias Servidor de partilha de ficheiros
address x.y.z.q
parents RUMOSRD_FLXSWCORE01
check_command check-host-alive
use Server
contact_groups WISESRV-critical
notes rlxfs01
icon_image_alt rlxfs01
vrml_image FileServer.png
register 1
}
And this is the host template used by both hosts:
define host {
name Server
alias Server Template
check_command check-host-alive
use advance24x7-host
max_check_attempts 5
contact_groups WISESRV-critical
notification_interval 60
notification_period 24x7
notification_options d,u,r
notifications_enabled 1
icon_image FileServer.png
vrml_image FileServer.png
statusmap_image FileServer.png
register 0
}
This host template uses other host templates, as the 'use' parameter states.
define host {
name advance24x7-host
use generic-host
event_handler_enabled 1
notification_interval 60
notification_period 24x7
notification_options d,r
notifications_enabled 1
register 0
}
...and this is also using another host template:
define host {
name advance8x5-host
use generic-host
event_handler_enabled 1
contacts helpdesk
notification_interval 60
notification_period 8x5
notification_options d,r
notifications_enabled 1
register 0
}
Regarding to services, I have this two set:
define service {
#NAGIOSQL_CONFIG_NAME FLAGSRV_imagina
host_name FLAGSRV_imagina
service_description PING
use service-WISESRV
check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%
register 1
}
define service {
#NAGIOSQL_CONFIG_NAME RUMOSSRV_rlxfs01
host_name RUMOSSRV_rlxfs01
service_description Disk Space Usage
use service-WISESRV
check_command check_nt_disk!secret!C!95!99
contact_groups WISESRV-critical
register 1
}
Using this service templates:
define service {
name service-WISESRV
service_description Template de servicos
use advance24x7-service
max_check_attempts 3
check_interval 3
retry_interval 1
notification_interval 45
notification_period 24x7
notification_options w,c,r
notifications_enabled 1
contact_groups WISESRV-critical
register 0
}
define service {
name advance24x7-service
use generic-service
max_check_attempts 5
check_interval 5
retry_interval 1
check_period 24x7
notification_interval 60
notification_period 24x7
notification_options w,c,r
notifications_enabled 1
contact_groups WISESRV-critical
stalking_options w,c
register 0
}
define service {
name generic-service
is_volatile 0
max_check_attempts 5
check_interval 60
retry_interval 15
active_checks_enabled 1
passive_checks_enabled 1
check_period none
parallelize_check 1
obsess_over_service 1
check_freshness 0
event_handler_enabled 1
flap_detection_enabled 1
process_perf_data 1
retain_status_information 1
retain_nonstatus_information 1
notification_interval 60
notification_period none
notification_options w,u,c,r
notifications_enabled 1
contact_groups admins
stalking_options o,w,u,c
failure_prediction_enabled 1
register 0
}
Can you please point me in the right direction? Am I misreading something?
And sorry for the long post. I should have used some web "pasting" tool. Just remembered. :)
Best regards,
Bruno Martins
