Down Option for Flapping and Stalking Not Saving (Revisit)

Post by jaimie.livingston »

Hello,

The issue that we've had in the past with the "down" options set in the CCM webgui not saving or being written to the config file/file on disk is back.

We are current on NagiosXI v5.8.5.

It doesn't matter how many time we click the "down" button for flapping or stalking options in a host, service, or template... When we reopen that object, the "down" option is unset, and we have this in the config (from either configs written to disk or using the "Show Config" option.). Notice that the "d" is missing from the options line.

Code: Select all

define host {
    name                            a-xt--production-template
    check_command                   check-host-alive-icmp!!!!!!!!
    ...
    flap_detection_options          o,u,
    stalking_options                o,u,N,
    register                        0
}

Has anyone else noticed this issue?

Hello @jaimie,

Thanks for following up, and after review, we see that this is a bug within the 5.8.5 version. I have filled a bug report so that this will be looked into.

Please refer to the Nagios XI Change Log for updates.

Looking at your case issue we see that you are using for "check-host-alive-icmp", and for the time being "Unreachable" will for the most part cover "Down" until this issue is resolved.

Thanks,
Perry

Thanks Perry,

Did the fix make it into 5.8.6 or will it be in 5.8.7?

Hello Jaimie Livingston,

This will be included in/after the 5.8.7 version and will be included in the change log.

Thanks,
