Hi All,
I would consider a godd idea if we can from the All Service Problems for instance, to be able to Force an immediate check on all of these problems.
This Button ? could also be usefull on a result window when we select only some services by using the filter field.
This avoid to go from service to service to force the check ...
Thx

Hello,
I don't know if you're using Nagios Core or Nagios XI.
In Nagios XI there is the
Mass Acknowledge Component that allows you to scheduled an immediate check in bulk to hosts/services.

Hi Kyang,
Thank you. I was speaking about NagiosXI, i should have specified. You're right ... but the goal is to have a button on the filtered services page, or All Service Problems page, in order to be able to refresh the services in one click.
Mass Acknowledge, AFAIK, oblige me to reselect all services i want to refresh...

Thank you for the explanation.
I saw a while back there was a feature request to actually create a component that would allow you to check off each host/service and do specific things instead of finding each host/service.
Some of the examples listed were for "Force an immediate check" and "Disable notifications", of course those were just examples and more could potentially be added if the feature request is implemented.
As for having it on the "All service problems page", I would think it would just tie back into the component i mentioned above.

With this script you can force the service check and also force all the services of a host.
For example:
Code: Select all
#!/bin/bash
#Develop test: bryan@gridshield.net | Bryan Quesada
command_file=`grep "^command_file=" /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg | cut -d "=" -f 2`
function reschedule() {
stamp=`date +%s`
naghost=$1
service="Retrieve"
#send command
echo "[$stamp] SCHEDULE_FORCED_SVC_CHECK;$naghost;$service;$stamp" >> $command_file
echo "Enviando host: $naghost servicio: $service "
sleep 1
echo " force the service from host: $naghost servicio: $service"
}
cont=0
### loop
for host in $*
do
if [[ $cont -le $# ]]; then
#echo $host
reschedule $host
fi
cont=`expr $cont + 1`
done
# SEND el RE-SCHEDULE para el host ICA011
## force all the services of a host
stamp=`date +%s`
host_ica="TEST"
# retry #1
echo " send host: $host_ica "
echo "[$stamp] SCHEDULE_FORCED_HOST_SVC_CHECKS;$host_ica;$stamp" >> $command_file
sleep 5
# retry #2
stamp=`date +%s`
echo "[$stamp] SCHEDULE_FORCED_HOST_SVC_CHECKS;$host_ica;$stamp" >> $command_file
sleep 1
###### Example execution
./send_commands.sh hostA hostB hostC hostD hostE hostH hostR hostS

Yes thank you @Bryan Quesada!
But as standed my post was to ask for a new feature (request for enhancement). Please take this demand into account for next releases, if you think it is pertinent.
Many thanks everybody for your help and support.
You can close this ticket.

Yes. We actually have a feature request already for this to add in functionality to those pages to allow you to take actions in bulk.
