Nagios Alert for specific hosts send as report to email

Post by mejokj »

Hi Team,

We are getting a lot of alerts as emails from Nagios as notifications so could not filter it as per critical hosts.

So we are looking for a list of host alerts (specific services) reports send to an email from Nagiosxi. Can you tell me how to achieve this?

For Example
===========
Need Alert for following but not limited to

1. We have a list of specific paths upon 75% full alert needs to come.
2. CPU goes 95% constantly, need an alert
3. Paging Space-------etc

Thanks

Hi,

I think the best way to handle this is to turn off email notifications from the hosts that you don't
consider critical. They will alert in the dashboard, but they won't send out emails.

For the hosts that are considered critical you can leave the email notifications on.

Your thoughts?

Thanks
