Only triggering an event in Hard state

[yunushaikh]

Hello,

Is there any way in nagios to trigger the alert only in hard state when the notification is send and not in soft state?

Thanks.

You need to pass the proper macros into your event handler and then check to see if it's a HARD state or SOFT state in the event handler. Then decide whether or not to take action.

Nagios ALWAYS triggers event handlers if they are defined and the thing is not in an OK state. It's up to the event handler script to determine if it should do something or not.
