Lame Service definition Warning?

Right about here:

No wonder, usually the diskette icon is for saving so I did not click on that.

Here is the code which looks exactly the same.

Code: Select all

define servicedependency {
       dependent_host_name           		MY1PIRR1
       dependent_service_description 		MIMIX Repl Group2
       host_name                     		MY1PIRR1
       service_description           		MIMIX Repl Group1
       inherits_parent               		1
       execution_failure_criteria    		n,
       notification_failure_criteria 		n,
       dependency_period             		24x7

}

The issue here is that dependent_host_name and host_name do not mean the same thing, but you have them set to be.

The dependent_host_name should be set to the host_name of the host that your dependent service runs on. So if ServiceB on HostB is dependent on ServiceA on HostA, you would want this layout:

Code: Select all

define servicedependency {
       dependent_host_name                      HostB
       dependent_service_description         ServiceB   
       host_name                                HostA
       service_description                      ServiceA
       inherits_parent                          1
       execution_failure_criteria               n
       notification_failure_criteria            n
       dependency_period                        24x7
}

What happens when you specify anything other than "n" (none) for the "Execution failure criteria" and "Notification failure criteria"? Do you still get the "lame service definition warning"?

Changed to the following, no more lame message.

Code: Select all

define servicedependency {
       dependent_host_name           		MY1PIRR1
       dependent_service_description 		MIMIX Repl Group2
       host_name                     		MY1PIRR1
       service_description           		MIMIX Repl Group1
       inherits_parent               		1
       execution_failure_criteria    		c,
       notification_failure_criteria 		c,
       dependency_period             		24x7

}
