Sugguestion/Question? Re: Notifications and acknowledgements

[Tom Tran]

Dear All,
   
  I am a newbie with Nagios but long time user of Enterprise Management (CA Unicenter in particular)...
   
  Here is my suggestion (not sure If i implemented correctly...) or it has been designed this way.
   
  Suppose I am monitoring a Server.... which I am trying to monitoring the following:
        Ping, disk space, Load.......
   
  And i set the threshold for my disk space.. and the disk space exceeds my critical threshold; therefore,  the status for my Disk Space Watcher is Red (Critical)...
   
  According to what i see right now.. the status for the whole server is GREEN.. I am not sure it is supposed to be green?  Isn't it supposed to be RED....  because of the propagation from a child level?
   
  Hope my explanation is clear enough.
   
  Best regards,
  Tom Tran
  EESImed.

  Hi, 

I'm running Suse 9.1 with Nagios 2.0b4

I have a service alerting as Critical which I then acknowledged.
Notifications were then supressed. 
However, I had to restart Nagios sometime later after adding some further
services/hosts and it seems that the acknowledgement still remains across
the restart but the notifications have started again. 

Is this expected behaviour ? I've trawled through the docs and archives but
cannot find a definitive
answer so any advice would be appreciated. 

thanks,
deborah
