Warning alerts

Post by RIDS_I2MP »

H team,

We want to suppress warning alerts for all services in Nagios Core.
Could you please help me on the same?

I don't know about the path of service definition and from where we need to remove them.

Thanks in advance!!
Thanks & Regards,
I2MP Team.

There are a couple ways to do this, depending on what the situation is. You can mass acknowledge unwanted alerts or schedule downtime for planned maintenance.

Click on Mass Acknowledge under Incident Management on the left pane of your home page in XI > then choose the appropriate values for Command Type, Time, and Comment > click Submit Commands.

You could also click on Scheduled Downtime under Incident Management on the left pane if you would like to suppress a future notification.

Hi,
We want to suppress warning alerts for all services in Nagios Core.
Just to clarify, is this an XI or Core question? You can also use the Bulk Mods Tool in XI, to remove the Warning option from all your services. Choose the Change Single Configuration Option and select Notification Options.

There is no way to do this globally in Core, what you can do is add the following to each of the service definitions:

Code: Select all

notification_options     c,u,r,f,s
w = send notifications on a WARNING state,
u = send notifications on an UNKNOWN state,
c = send notifications on a CRITICAL state,
r = send notifications on recoveries (OK state),
f = send notifications when the service starts and stops flapping, and
s = send notifications when scheduled downtime starts and ends.

The path would depend on how you configured your Nagios Core server. Usually, the configs are under the "/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects" directory.
