Nagios Support Forum

Since the weather has conspired against me and put a damper on my
vacation day, I've had some time to think about this.

As mentioned on the upcoming page
(http://www.nagios.org/upcoming.php), I was hoping to add some
adaptive monitoring features to Nagios in 3.0. Now I'm thinking that
I *might* add these to 2.0.

Essentially what this would involve is adding the ability to change
various host/service properties during runtime using external
commands. The most important mutable properties that I think should
be implemented include:

Services:
- Event handler command
- Check command
- Normal check interval
- Retry check interval

Hosts:
- Event handler command
- Check command
- Normal check interval (2.0 will include scheduled host checks)

Are there any other host/service properties that people might
consider high on their wishlist? I realize that any property has the
potential of being modified, but right now I'm only interested in
those that might have the most impact of flexibility.
