Nagios Notifications

[Sotiroff, Kristian]

sounds like you're not that familiar with shell scripts.
 
in which case, its probably easier if you simply create a timeperiod in
whcih you leave out the required hours, then have your service checks
and / or notifications occurring during this time.

Thanks for the reply.
 Are you saying that if I simply copy paste the below code in a file
called 'disable_active_service_checks' under eventhandlers directory ,
that should work??
And how do you actually  change the STOP_EXECUTING_SERVICE_CHECKS to
START_EXECUTING_SERVICE_CHECKS
 
Little confused , bare with me.

Unfortunately we did not find any sample scripts under eventhandler
directory. The directory specified in resource.cfg itself does not
exist.
Can you suggest ?

 <... snip....> 
 
 
 have you installed the plugins? it comes with that i think. the scripts
are pretty basic though. 
 
here is the 'disable_active_service_checks script:
 
#!/bin/sh
 
# Write a command to the Nagios command file to cause
# it to disable active service checks.  This can be
# referred to as 'standby' mode in a redundant monitoring
# environment.
 
# Notes:
# 1) This script is not intended to be used as an
#    event handler by itself.  Instead, it is used by other
#    event handler scripts (like the redundancy examples).
# 2) In order for Nagios to process any commands that
#    are written to the command file, you must enable
#    the check_external_commands option in the main
#    configuration file.
 
echocmd="/bin/echo"
 
CommandFile="/usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd"
 
# get the current date/time in seconds since UNIX epoch
datetime=`date +%s`
 
# create the command line to add to the command file
cmdline="[$datetime] STOP_EXECUTING_SERVICE_CHECKS"
 
# append the command to the end of the command file
`$echocmd $cmdline >> $CommandFile`
 
 
in order to reenable them, simply change the
STOP_EXECUTING_SERVICE_CHECKS to START_EXECUTING_SERVICE_CHECKS
