New Nagios server with notifications working well
Server & virtual workstations run 24/7 and I receive notification via email whenever a condition WARNING or CRITICAL is triggered.
The physical workstations run ad-hoc and I receive notifications when they are powered off which I don't want. I only want to check their conditions and be notified when they are running.
I have servers, virtual workstations and physical workstations in their own host groups if this helps.
Is it possible to set one host group to send a notification when a condition is triggered at any time and set another host group to send a notification when a condition is triggered only when the host is running?

Re: Tuning notifications
You should be able to just disable notifications in the configuration for the hosts themselves.
By default the services should only send notifications if the host is UP.
When the host is DOWN you would not receive notifications.
Code: Select all
notifications_enabled 0
When the host is DOWN you would not receive notifications.
