Log entry for Notification Disable?

[matt.uebel]

When a user submits the command to disable notifications for a host or service, is there any logging available to track this?

Nagios XI includes an "Audit Log". Go to --> Admin --> System Information --> Audit Log.

Thanks, I have found these log entries.

Is there anything that would cause a host to notify even when Notifications are disabled? I see one of my users disabled notifications for a host, but then 20 minutes later, and a few more times over the night, the host still notified.

There are a few different methods for disabling notifications, what method did your user use to disable notifications?

[matt.uebel]

Clicking the "Disable Notifications" link in the Quick Actions panel of the Host Status Detail page was the method to disable notifications.

[abrist]

Were you receiving notifications to just the user in question? Or to all contacts on the disabled object?

[matt.uebel]

We received notifications for all users.

[slansing]

But did you receive notifications for your contacts as well? "Not users, just contacts."

[matt.uebel]

yeah, it was basically all contacts that would normally receive notifications if the host had notifications enabled. Cell Phone of the CIO and everything

[matt.uebel]

thank you sir, figured out the issue. The user had not actually disabled notifications for the correct host, so user error and not nagios error in this case.
