Hello,
I have a issue with notifications. Nagios sends the notification to user which not specified for this service. I've checked the config for this service and see only selected users. I also created new monitoring task for the new service only with one notification contact but in logs i see that nagios send alerts to the selected and non selected user. This user the same in both cases. This problem has appeared recently. Does anybody had this issue ?
Nagios XI Version : 2012R2.3
CentOS release 5.7 (Final)
Issue with notification

Re: Issue with notification
Just to verify, test1 is the contact you intend to notify, and it is not a distribution list? Have you made any modifications to the xiwizard_webtransaction_webinject_service template, that would include another contact?

Re: Issue with notification
Yes. And I didn't made any changes for this template and for others. By the way, the problem is present only for one servise config. I don't see this problem for other configs.
Situation such is, If I add a configuration for any service in this config that nagios adds one more contact (always same) to existing when sending notifications

Re: Issue with notification
Can you go to CCM -> Service Templates and click the disk icon next to any template, and attach the resulting file.
Thanks.
Thanks.

Re: Issue with notification
That file shows it has the contact group admins defined. Any service that uses this template, most every aside from hand configured services, would then send to all administrators of the nagios server. Is the person that is getting notifications an administrator? Regardless, I would likely suggest removing this contact group from generic-service template.

Re: Issue with notification
Nope, he is not an administrator. And I have this issue only with one service config. I've attached this config

Re: Issue with notification
Are all of the services in this config having issues, or just one or two? I see the following contacts listed for various services, would any of them match who is getting the notifications?
nagiosadmin, test1, MFMIT(group), test1, hptech, hptech1, hptech2
You also have the ssl cert monitoring service group on one service, that might add additional contacts.
