Nagios Support Forum

Hello,

I want to know if is possible to keep a specific status when a service or host is in SOFT STATE. I mean, if is it possible to keep an OK status while is in SOFT STATE and, once it changes to HARD STATE, show the CRITICAL or WARNING status ?

Thnx for help.

I don't believe so, not as far as display goes. Nagios would have no way of knowing it was in a hard state without running through your retry_intervals, which govern the state level (soft/hard) which in turn govern notifications.
