Oh yeah this is sorted, I will add more to this as I complete work and deploy just for others in the future that may find this thread trying to do the same thing! But my issue is resolved, future updates are solely to document the solution in more detail for others
Cheers!

Re: Assistance with Nagios Logging
I'm going to play with this (Probably next week at this point) but I'll post what I end up with! Biggest issue is that I do not have a dev nagios box built currently, so I have to generate alerts to test currently. I will probably spin up a test box for this so I can play without limits. Thanks for ...

Re: Assistance with Nagios Logging

Assistance with Nagios Logging
I apologize if this has been asked, I have been doing some reading but cannot seem to find an answer. When service, or host notifications are disabled should notifications still be writing to nagios.log? And if so is there a way to prevent it? I am using nagios.log for some of my alerting, as the al...
