Passive Checking Option

Post by easy2kent »

I have a check that only runs for a certain time period. Basically I just want it to run once a day but the information from the check I want and the notification gives me the information I need. I have been going and manual passive checking the service to OK everyday and I was wondering if there was a way to schedule that so I don't have to do it manual or forget. So a way to run passive checks on a service right before the check of the service would run so if the service was critical it would send a notification.

Using the VM of Nagios
XI R1.8

You can set a cron job to run once a day, so you won't have to do this manually.
