Set service's default state as Off/Critical

Hey, all,

I'm pretty new to Nagios and Linux, so my apologies if this has been covered. I have searched for this for quite a bit, with no success.

I am trying to set up Nagios to see a service's down status as good. For example, the SSH on ESX servers should be off, which Nagios currently sees as critical, but that's the state I want it to be.

Anyone has ideas how to set this up, if at all possible?

TIA.

There is a nifty plugin called negate that should do the trick for you! The documentation is written for XI however you should be able to adapt the commands and ideas for your core installation without issue. Take a look and let us know if you have questions.
