I've attached a couple screen shots of email alerts I get. The one that states the server is actually DOWN wasn't true because I could access the server. The other is just a warning then an alert stating it's OK. I'm constantly getting these from servers on two different networks in the same buildin...

At lmiltchev: Good call on that templates file, I found this in there

At sreinhardt: Does this look more like what you were asking for?

define service
{
name Windows-disk-service
use host-service
servicegroups Disk-services
notofication_period workhours
register 0
}

At abrist: The uptime alerts are required. At sreinhardt: Disregard the typo's in the post, they're written correctly in the file.

Where exactly would that be? Because I'm not seeing any template definition for a "host-service" in the Windows.cfg file.

This is what the uptime service definition entry looks like: define service{ use host-service hostgroup_name network-servers, branch-servers service_description Uptime check_command check_nt!UPTIME servicegroups uptime-services } Currently there are no numbers or thresholds specified for anything in...

I keep getting "uptime state=warning" notifications and then about 20 mins later receive "uptime state=OK" but there was never any reboot/shutdown of the system specified. My guess is that it just normal network latency. Is there any way to tweak uptime thresholds so that it's no...
