Nagios Support Forum

I found solution in another thread.
https://support.nagios.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=43841

I ran grep -R "normal_retry_interval" . on my /nagios/etc/ folder, but it's returning nothing. Yet, I still get this message when I verify the configs. Reading configuration data... Read main config file okay... WARNING: The normal_retry_interval attribute is deprecated and will be removed...

Yes, check_init was exactly what I needed. Thanks!

i need to be notified when a service stops on a host. does anyone have a linux plugin that allows you to set a critical threshold for a service that stops running? the 'check_services' plugin that comes with nrpe does not have this feature.

thanks in advance!
