Nagios Support Forum

Hello All,

I have recently installed nagios and it is working well. I have run into one snag. I am trying to monitor many nodes across a T1 line and display it as a T1 "host" with many ping services.
I have a host file set up something like this:

define host{
use generic-switch
host_name t1_line
alias t1 line
address 192.168.0.1
hostgroups t1lines
}

define service{
use generic-service
host_name t1_line
service_description PING
check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%
}

define service{
use generic-service
service_description ping of 2nd hop on T1 line
check_command check_ping -H 192.168.0.2 -w 100.0,20% -c 500.0,60%
}

Nagios check comes back fine but when I run it, it only show one service (my main IP) and the second one never shows up. Can anyone point me to where I am going wrong?

Any help is appreciated.

Cheers,

Steve

Hi,

you miss the host_name definition.

Try this

define service{
use generic-service
host_name t1_line
service_description ping of 2nd hop on T1 line
check_command check_ping -H 192.168.0.2 -w 100.0,20% -c 500.0,60%
}

Regards

Ivan
