Couldn't find it. Must have been in Icinga docs.
This thread can be closed.
Thank you both for the effort anyway.

Thanks for following up. At this stage all I'd like to know is if this configuration would work in Nagios. The grouping should be done in the groups, not in the notifications. I wouldn't call that grouping. I just want to tell nagios/icinga to notify me (escalate to me) in case of the service 1 is d...

What version of Core are you using? I'm sorry, I should have told that this is Icinga 1.12 I know that all directives are fine. If this is not relevant, the thread can be closed, but really, I was looking for nagios/icinga logic I might be missing. What does the escalations definition end up lookin...

Does anyone know if service escalations can be configured using both: servicegroup_name and hostgroup_name? #serviceescalation.cfg define serviceescalation{ first_notification 0 last_notification 1 notification_interval 0 contact_groups admin escalation_period 24x7 escalation_options c,r servicegrou...

~/.../hostgroups/routers-hg.cfg define hostgroup{ hostgroup_name routers alias routers-pw } ~/.../hostgroups/servers-hg.cfg define hostgroup{ hostgroup_name servers alias servers-pw } Hostgroups should be fine. I know it because when I add 'servers to my escalations I can see they are grabbed by pre...

Thanks tgriep. That's what I though. However when I remove my sms contact (myself) from hosts.cfg I am not receiving any sms notifications at all. The config still grabs escalations correctly. I assume the issue here is, it doesn't grab contacts properly, I might be mistaken though... Running pre-fl...

Hello Having issues with host and service escalations sending via sms. Original set up: host and service notifications are being sent via e-mail just fine - the way I want - 24x7. Objective: based on current configuration - configure escalations to be notified by sms outside of working hours (nights...
