Nagios Support Forum

I'm looking for a straight forward way to send test notifications.

I'd like to do this without having to write a custom check/test, and without having to purposely trigger a real problem to force the notification.

Is there a way of doing this?

Thanks in advance!

Copy the command_line field from your notification command, replace all the appropriate macros by hand, and run the command as the nagios user.

Perfect, thanks!

I'll be closing this thread now, but feel free to open another if you need anything in the future!
