<div>Hello List</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am using nagios 3.0.1 in Ubuntu desktop version 7.10.Luckily i configured my all devices mostly windows based.I am monitoring 75 hosts and 1052 services associated with it.</div>
<div>My notification is working fine i am using sendEmail client but i get notification of host and service problem after 3 min of host /service being down.</div>
<div>Is there any way to reduce time , i tried to search for commands definition on /usr/local/nagios/objects/commands.cfg file but no lucks.where can i find these definitions made for notification interval?</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>Also i would like to have escalation matrix for the notifications such a way that if hardstate remains for more than an hr, escalations occur.In the below mentioned comand is it possible to specify more than one service ? or all services together ..........since I want the same escalation for each host/sevice down.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>define serviceescalation{<br>host_name webserver<br>service_description HTTP<br>first_notification 3<br>last_notification 5<br>notification_interval 90<br>contact_groups nt-admins,managers<br>}</div>
<div> </div>
<div>and the most important where do in need to define these commands ? in contacts.cfg file as well as commands.cfg file </div>
<div> </div>
<div>I am new to nagios so list help is surely appreciated also i have tried to dig out this info from documntation & FAQ's but no help.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>thanks </div>
