Suppress individual alerts and get only one alert

HI Mates,


Is there any possibilities to have one alert instead of having multiple alerts for the number of Switches down which are in same rack. If i have created these 10 switches in one group as "Rack 1 Switches".

Lets say we have 10 switches mounted in one rack, and all these swtiches are configured in nagios for ping check.

For example: If this rack has power issue, Nagios will send us logs as CRITICAL for 10 Swtiches. My requirement is to filter these all and convert to one mail alert to avoid multiple alerts.


Let me know your suggestion.

Thank You.

Have you considered using BPI for this?:

Thanks mate. Let me try this, but will it work for nagios core?
