Re: How to get the notification status of a host's service?

Re: Failed Migration :: Dif Version Nagios, Dif Version OS

Sorry about that, the command should have been:

Code: Select all

Re: State information stored outside the database?

Excuse me with English! Through the web interface of Nagios, I can generate the report availability, but how can I generate a report of performance in terms of latency and packet loss? You could get a report about the service states, including how often they were OK/WARNING/CRITICAL. For something ...

Re: Buffered Remote Messages

I don't know of anything that does exactly what you want, but maybe someone else will come along who does.
