Disable Host Notifications Remotely

[JohnFLi]

I have some users ( our web developers) that as they move public facing webservers in and out of production they want to be able to run a script on their system that will disable all notifications for a specific host. They want to do it as a script so that it can be done automaticly (instead of having to manually disable them)

I have no idea on how to do that.
Any examples somebody could give me?

You could write to command pipe with an external command:
http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/extcommands.html
http://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ext ... ndlist.php
Specifically:
http://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ext ... mand_id=16

thank you for that, but that looks like its all needing to be run on the linux machine itself......
Im looking for somethign that can be run from a windows machine.

You can also disable notification remotely with the following GET:

Code: Select all

http://nagiosadmin:<password>@<ip>/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi?cmd_typ=11&cmd_mod=2&btnSubmit=Commit

And re-nable with:

Code: Select all

http://nagiosadmin:<password>@<ip>/nagios/cgi-bin/cmd.cgi?cmd_typ=12&cmd_mod=2&btnSubmit=Commit

I dont need them disabling all alerts, just specific ones. ALso, it still required the username and password to be entered.
