Hi,

Due to Nagios Client service which was stopped unexpectedly, there was server generated multiple tickets(false alerts) and there is no fault in server. Need guidance/assistance/steps here to generate a single ticket(This should have been treated as a single incident).

Please share your valuable inputs.

Probably the best alternative to resolve this would be to use check_tcp to check the remote agents port and verify it is responding. opposed to just checking ping, which is likely happening now.
