I know it is scriptable. I was wondering if the functionality however exists via the interface to provide a time on/off in a native way.

Is there any way to temporarily disable notifications in Nagios? What I'm thinking: something similar to the service downtime, where I can specify a time for disabling notifications and another to re-enable them automatically. The situation: Some times we do some testing with the subservice most of ...

Back to the issue at hand, if you would like to see functionality added to Nagios Core, please post an issue here: https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/nagioscore That way the devs can have it on their radar. No guarantees it will be implemented, but the first step is getting it in their sights. ht...

You should come to the 2015 Nagios World Conference in September and you can talk directly with the developers to help them understand what you want to accomplish! If you register (https://conference.nagios.com/register) tell them eloyd sent you! :-) That'd be awesome but unfortunately I live in Be...

Thanks for the suggestions once again. I have already created an issue/feature request in github (https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/nagioscore/issues/46) because even the flapping detection doesn't exactly solve my situation. As I commented out in github, the major reason why flapping detection i...

How do you define the limits for flapping detection? How does nagios actually "detect" flapping? I will have a look into the docu before bugging you all with more questions

Thanks for your replies. I had foreseen such solution with event handlers would be the only solution. It does however, imho, break the whole usage of nagios. Or better said: disable standard nagios behaviour to use a custom one. I acknowledge that Nagios thinks the first OK is always a HARD state. H...

So I'm using nagios core 4.0.8, and I have this situation with a service which enters a fail (crit) status and we know about it, we acknowledge the issue, and it stops bugging us. Problem arises when the service check returns an OK status for one single check, but returns to critical on the next ser...
