Re: downtime for ALL hosts and services at once?

Great, thanks! I downloaded the bulk tool and it seems to do what we need.

downtime for ALL hosts and services at once?

What is the best way to apply downtime to all hosts and services at once? Or at least a lot of them? We were doing to pretty major maintenance this weekend involving a couple dozen Windows hosts and their services. Instead of applying downtime to all the hosts and services, we just removed the virtu...

Re: Turn off alerts for "no data received from host"

OK, this can be marked closed. I changed the service template to be 3 max checks. That didn't change any of the existing ones, so I'm not sure if that accomplished anything. Then I used the bulk mod tool to change all my existing services to be 3. I always forget about the bulk mods, it's very handy...

Re: Turn off alerts for "no data received from host"

I really like jwelch's solution but editing a script is above my head if it involves anything more than vi and simple variable or text substitutions. So I guess my questions still stand: If I edit the xiwizard_windowsserver_nsclient_service template to put the Check Settings to 5/1/3, that should gi...

Re: Turn off alerts for "no data received from host"

For this service, the Check Settings checks/retries/max are set to 5/1/2. The Alert Settings are set to no delay. On the Common Settings tab, I see this host is listed on the "Managed Hosts" page, and the "xiwizard_windowsserver_nsclient_service" is listed on the "Managed Te...

Turn off alerts for "no data received from host"

I thought I had this configured correctly but I guess not. Once in a while, a check is missed/times out for whatever reason and we get notifications emailed like the following. I've tried to find where to turn that off but apparently I've missed it somewhere. Can someone tell me all the templates or...

Error deleting a service

I removed a drive from a server today and went to delete the service from CCM. It didn't delete, saying there were dependencies. I edited the service and removed the hosts (just one), the templates, etc, and error persists. This what I see: Database Relationships for service : myserver.mydomain.com ...

Re: Time Periods Question

Sorry, for some reason I just now saw this reply. No, this isn't really urgent, just something I want to get set up and configured as part of tweaking all our settings.

I'll check our configs and re-test today or tomorrow and post an update.

Re: Suppress Downtime Notification?

Excellent information. I was looking for downtime options when I should have (duh!) been looking at the Notification options.

Thanks much, that will do the trick nicely.
