Nagios Support Forum

After trying many different things, it appears restarting the snmpd process worked. Thanks for all of your suggestions!

I actually don't have that under /var/spool. I didn't originally set up this Nagios installation but now I am the admin of it. I restarted snmpd this morning in hopes that it may be the cause but this has been causing a lot of stress for my co workers.

This is happening for all checks, regardless of host. Just happened again for an alert:

I will paste the results of that shortly but the issue is very intermittent. It works most of the time and will randomly send out alerts late. If you look at what I sent, its a five hour difference but its not always five hours, its some random time.

Hello, I am having a problem where, intermittently, alerts are being detected but sending out hours later. For example: Notification Type: PROBLEM Service: **** Host: **** Address: **** State: CRITICAL Date/Time: Fri Aug 2 18:21:20 EDT 2013 Additional Info: Aug 2 13:24:15 The issue happened at 13:24...

Sorry for not being specific - I am picking up the information for notifications from logs. I would like to add if (this issue) then (ignore) or something to that effect.

Thank's for getting back to me. I'm looking to filter out alerts with certain keywords.

Right now I have many alerts that are coming up with broad definitions. Is there a way to filter out some of the alerts that are coming up, while being able to keep the broad definition of the service?

I have over 100+ hosts and many host groups, services, etc. I would like to have certain people notified of certain critical service alerts for specific hostgroups.

Is there a way to use service groups for notifications?
