AW: More sophistic notification

[Helmut W. Januschka]

Hi,
I m not sure if nagios can do that, but from my point of view a critical service can never be "no problem" :-)
my tipp is to tweak the plugin parameters or modify the plugins so that a service is only critical when there is a problem
 
 
 
regards
helmut

	Betreff: [Nagios-users] More sophistic notification
	
	


	Hello 
	I've one question. Is Nagios capable to give more sophisticated notifications ? What I mean ? 
	 Let's example. I'm monitoring on one machine few  values ( cpu, memory , proccesses etc) There are plugins in Nagios which can monitor these values and send notifications if values are out of normal (warning, critical state). But I'd like to get only one notification if group of measure values are in critical state. To my example, one group of my measures values on one machine are: CPUload, MEM, Proccesses. So I'd like to get notification when all of these values are in critical state, not only two. The first purpose of this is that 2 values on one machine in critical state doesn't' have to be problem, but 4 or five is problem. The second purpose is to avoid to get false alarms cause CPU in critical state could be a normal in some environment and when you'll get hundreds notifications per day you will probably ignore it.

	So is this possible to define some group of alarms and on the basis of theme to send notification that host is in critical state cause all of measure values are in critical state?

	Thanx a lot for an answers and ideas 
	peter
