Nagios Support Forum

You could always just use passive checks. That way when the device is off Nagios won't really know or care and will retain the last status that the device reported. Then when it turns on and joins the network it can start sending data to Nagios. The request wont be done by Nagios ? Then how the dev...

I would disable active check on the host and all service, then submit passive check result OK to them. The problem is , actually the host is a laptop so sometimes the worker goes out with his laptop. There is no way to monitor it with this type of feature. We wanted to keep track of the minimum inf...

Hi there,

I was wondering if there was any way to have an OK status for an host that is down with all his services. It's a redundancy plan and the machine need to be turned off but monitored when its on.

I would like to see if there is any script made for this type of suppervision, 0 or 1 of these process running = Good Both Process Running = CRI...

You could use the negate plugin to change critical to warning or ok. This will change the availability metrics/historical data for the host, because future checks will be seen as ok instead of critical. Where can i get this plugin, i searched on Nagios Exchange & the library and it seems it can...

Hi there , We have a machine that is going down too many time (Internet problem for this host). I was looking to get an option to set this machine as normal so that he won't pop into Nagios as Critical. If this is possible i would really like to know this options.

Thank you very much in advance !
