How to add Nagios custom states

Post by SnowranCruzick »

I am Using Nagios XI. Currently My Nagios showing three states of alerts: CRITICAL, WARNING and OK. I want to add another custom hard state FATAL for some extreme issues like server or any of my component(Java jar component) is down. Currently we are getting the DOWN message when the Host is Down. If the component is down I am getting "URL Status is CRITICAL" But I want "URL Status is FATAL". Is that possible to add a custom State in Nagios? How can I do that?

Hi @SnowranCruzick,

Thank you for reaching out!

Unfortunately there is currently no functionality that allows adding custom states, though this is something that is on our radar.

If you have any other questions, feel free to reach out!
