Nagios Support Forum

I assume i would add this to the service itself? I was thinking of creating a parent -> child tree where the main parent for example would be named Firewalls and have no services on it. Then create 2 childs where 1 would have the ping service and the other have the dummy ping service. The only downs...

Well, i would like to have the best configurable solution since now i have to do everything 2x (on the core and on the central). I know mod_gearman will be tricky to setup at first but afterwards it should save time i presume. As i explained before the only problem i am facing with the central are t...

Thanks for the answers. With the dummy checks i mean the following. Some hosts arent pingable (non-managable switches as example). Since we use a general group that does pinging these hosts will give criticals. So what we did was make a service check named the same and use as check a dummy ok check....

Remove the .txt extension so you get the original .wsf file. In the nsclient i use the following line to call for ...

How can i make a custom notification that only goes for 1 host/service combination and not overwriting the standard notification that is already in place?

The problem here is that its only 1 time. We want it automated so it always happens when something happens to a particular host/service.

The backup script in the nagiosxi dir makes a complete backup of all nagiosxi related files and db's. THe only thing i cant say for sure if the httpd files are in this backup as well. If you restore it, it will be set back to the version and data from when you made the backup. So you can even restor...

While running the upgrade to R3.3 the installer suddenly stopped with the description below: Complete! `/usr/share/ajaxterm/' -> `/usr/local/nagios/share/ajaxterm' `/usr/share/ajaxterm/ajaxterm.pyc' -> `/usr/local/nagios/share/ajaxterm/ajaxterm.pyc' `/usr/share/ajaxterm/ajaxterm.js' -> `/usr/local/n...
