Bulk Modifications

We're still on Nagios 2014R1.3 and we're going to be upgrading hopefully in the next week or so.

My question is, on the newer version, is there a way to bulk modify warning and critical levels on disk checks? We're changing our standard and that's going to require quite a few changes, so if anyone has an idea or knows, please let me know.

I though about trying to do it from the server, but in most cases, it looks like XI will overwrite the files you try to do manually. Plus I've seen warning messages about not editing files by hand.

Thanks

Eric

This kind of depends on your setup.

Are the $ARG1$ and $ARG2$ variables static across the different services?
Are you using a specific command for check_disk, or is it running using a check agent command?

Here's a screenshot of how the bulk mod tool looks for changing the check command associated with a service.
