Logarithmic alert interval option

Post by Bitflogger »

Hello,

I am running v5.5.8, 64-bit, VM, CentOS7.

To avoid having a large number of alerts during the weekend or other time off, it has been suggested at my site to logarithmically increase the notification interval.

If the second alert is after 30 minutes, the third is 60 minutes, then 120 minutes.

Is this an option you have considered before?

I don't see any mention of it on the github page or internally. I would suggest filing a feature request at https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/nagioscore/issues.
