Nagios does not actively monitor hosts. Yes, it checks hosts, but it does not monitor
them. What's the difference? Think of hosts as points or intersections along a road, services as being houses along the side of these roads. Nagios only monitors houses (services). If for some reason it cannot reach a house, it checks to see if there is a problem in the road (host) preventing it from getting to the house (service), and reports these findings to you.</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=720565120-20072006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=720565120-20072006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>If you want Nagios to work like CA's product, that can be done as well, but you'll lose ther ability to determine where along the roadway is the problem. To do this, use check_cluster for your check-host-alive.</FONT></SPAN></DIV> <DIV><SPAN class=720565120-20072006><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2></FONT></SPAN> </DIV> <BLOCKQUOTE style="PADDING-LEFT: 5px;

exceeds my critical threshold; therefore, the status for my Disk Space Watcher is Red (Critical)...</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>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?
