Custom event handler command giving service not defined
Posted: Fri Jul 10, 2020 12:20 pm
I went through the Nagios Core Event Handlers documentation and created an event to restart the video service when the swap usage gets out of control. Problem is that I'm getting a service not defined error when running the pre-flight check. Aside from the configurations below I've also confirmed that the paths to the configuration files in nagios.cfg are pointed to the files I'm editing. Would someone please lend a hand?
The restart-videoservice is part of the localhost.cfg swap usage service:
I've also defined the command in the commands.cfg file:
