I've setup service escalations in the following manner, but I don't see the service escalations working. Can you please assist me with what I'm doing wrong? Thanks in adavance!

I want the service below (for host rubyext-06-ls) to escalate. The initial notification is successful, but escalation never occurs.

Code: Select all

define serviceescalation {
        hostgroup_name                          external-apache-servers-lnx,external-apache-servers-sol,[b]external-ruby-apache2-servers[/b]
        service_description                     [b]HTTP apache status 80[/b]
        contact_groups                          apache_admins,webinfra,webinfra-pager
        first_notification                      2
        last_notification                       0
        notification_interval                   15
        escalation_period                       24x7
        }

Code: Select all

define service {
	service_description		[b]HTTP apache status 80[/b]
	use				apache-service_notify
	hostgroup_name			external-apache-servers-lnx,external-apache-servers-sol,[b]external-ruby-apache2-se
rvers[/b],internal-apache-servers-lnx,internal-apache-servers-sol,passenger-servers
	display_name			HTTP apache status 80
	servicegroups			apache,ruby-apache2
	check_command			check-apache-status!5!1!!!!!!
	obsess_over_service		1
	register			1
	}

Code: Select all

define host {
        host_name                       rubyext-06-ls
        use                             [b]external-ruby-apache2-server[/b]

Can you show us screenshots of the "State History" and "Notifications" reports, filtered for "HTTP apache status 80"?
