Nagios Support Forum

Do we have option to configure mail only at first time of the issue and one email once it is resolved ?
How do I configure that ? Can I supress the reoccurrence of email ?

Now, I have configured Alerts in such way that if there is any problem detected Nagios will send an alert immediately, after every 60 Minutes Nagios will send an alert untill problem gets resolve.

Everything you need is in the Nagios notifications documentation and escalations documentation.

Basically, you want to only alert once when it goes critical, and then only alert once when it goes back to ok. You can do it many ways, but the most straightforward is to check your alert notifications as per the notifications document. Alert when it goes critical, only alert once, and alert for recovery.

Set "notification_interval" to "0" for the checks you want to suppress repeat alerts for. But hopefully you found this yourself..
