We have a business requirement where we dont want acknowledgement notifications sent to certain contacts (pager) but we do want them send to other (email).
I've looked at notification options for contact definitions and there is no flag for acknowledgements.

How can I go about this?

I'm having trouble getting mysql replication to work properly. I've followed this doc here http://community.nagios.org/2010/01/16/nagios-quick-mysql-replication-for-your-nagios-installation/ I've taken fresh DB dumps and started replication but it keeps complaining about duplicate entries.

Are you looking to script the notifications on/off instead of using XI's options? Yes, thats exactly what I'm doing...

What we have... Two NagiosXI enterprise servers at two different locations. Both locations have a site to site VPN in between. Both servers monitor exactly the same hosts/services across the two locations. Currently only one server sends out notifications. What we want (ideally) Have a redundant se...

I have created a work around for what we desire, im posting it here so others can benefit from it. Basically we setup contacts normally with no escalation policy. To suppress X amount notification for some contacts I did the following... Edit /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/handle_nagioscore_notificatio...

I believe you are correct. This should definitely apply to everything. The best option I can give you would be to redefine that service group and check. One for production and one for staging. While its not ideal to have to recreate these things, we would generally suggest to keep intermingling of ...
