Two Event handler on same service

[anjali]

Hello Team,
I want to execute two event handler on the same service, one I need to execute when service is down and another I want to execute when service is again up.
So how I can achieve that? Please help me in that.

One event handler for both things. If you read the event handler documentation (https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... dlers.html) you'll see that the event handler can be told if this is a CRITICAL (going down) or an OK (recovery/coming up) event. You would program your script to take different actions accordingly.

Hello,
But how I can get that event handler is executed for up or downstate in my custom script?

Read the documentation. Assigning the event handler will make it execute for every check performed. It's up to you to write the handler in such a way that it knows whether it is supposed to do something or not.

Eric is right, in the documentation he referenced https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... dlers.html you can see in the script you can put the code you want to execute in different parts of the example script to run on different state changes

ok thanks, I achieve that by using service state in my custom script.
