Hello,

We need to know that if the change of state that has provocated a normal alert, is from a critical or warning alert.

Hello,

When you receive an alert:

***** Nagios XI Alert *****

There will be information on a state change:

"State: CRITICAL"

If this did not help please let us know what alert you are speaking of.

This depends on the thresholds you have set when you setup the particular service.

If the check is beyond the CRITICAL threshold it will give a critical message, in the warning threshold a WARNING, otherwise OK

I'm not explaining correctly......

I need to know if there is any way to find out when a normal alert jumps because it has regained a warning or critical alert

Regards.

Hello,

What I need is that the alerts generated by a critical standard, I see the user1 and alerts generated by a standard warning user2 sees it. Is that possible?

Hi,

Could you take a look at Nagios XI State History Reports? Located on the Nagios XI navigation bar at:

Reports > Available Reports > State History

You can also view which users are being notified from Notifications here.

Is this what you were looking for?

Hello,

I do not think I'm explaining correctly, I will try to explain again, what I'm trying to do is the following:

We want to integrate Nagios with HP-OVO,

What we are doing is capturing Warning messages and send them as a group are going to other critical, the problem we are having is when we get an OK do not know how to correlate it with the warning or critical alarm, to send to a group or another.

Is that possible?

Regards,
Monica
