Host dependencies do not work.

[Campisi, Joseph]

Hi All,

 

I'm having a problem with host dependencies.

 

As an example I have the server test1 dependent on navgw1.

 

define hostdependency{  

        dependent_host_name     test1

        host_name                       navgw1

        notification_failure_criteria   d,u,o

}

 

 

As a test I brought down host navgw1 and test1 to simulate a failure.

For some reason, I do not get notified that navgw1 or test1 went down.

 

If I comment out the define hostdependency lines, notifications work
properly but I get notified for both servers.

 

Does anyone have any idea?  Here is an example of my cfg files.

 

Thanks,

Joe

 

define host{

        name                            generic-host

        check_command                   check-host-alive

        max_check_attempts              5

        notification_interval           240

        notification_period             24x7

        notification_options            d,u,r

        notifications_enabled           1       ; Host notifications are
enabled

        event_handler_enabled           1       ; Host event handler is
enabled

        flap_detection_enabled          1       ; Flap detection is
enabled

        process_perf_data               1       ; Process performance
data

        retain_status_information       1       ; Retain status
information across program restarts

        retain_nonstatus_information    1       ; Retain non-status
information across program restarts

        register                        0       ; DONT REGISTER THIS
DEFINITION - ITS NOT A REAL HOST, JUST A TEMPLATE!

        }

 

define host{

        use             generic-host

        host_name       test1

        alias           test1

        address         10.10.10.10

        parents         navgw1

}
