<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial size=2>Alright, I am trying
to get Nagios to re-send an e-mail every 2 minutes.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial

<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here's what I
gathered from the docs:</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial size=2>the
interval_length=60 is in seconds and it determines the standard
'time_unit'</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial size=2>this means 1 time
unit = 60 seconds = 1 minute</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial
size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial size=2>now, the
notify_interval in the services section says that the value there is showed in
'time unit lengths'. By default the sample config file had a notify_interval of
120 which, according to my understanding means 120minutes = 2hours. Since I want
2 minutes, I changed that to 2.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial

<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial size=2>But now Nagios log
says that my notify_interval is smaller than my interval_length. Isn't he
comparing apples and oranges ? I mean, one is seconds, the other is minutes. Is
this a bug ?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial size=2>I am pretty sure
that the 120 is 2hours since I don't get any more notifies of the host being
down after the first one..</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=996061818-15032003><FONT face=Arial size=2>Any clues
?</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
