Disable notification for all hosts and all services

Hi,

I am migrating from Nagios core to Nagios XI. As per the Migrating_From_Nagios_Core_To_Nagios_XI.pdf doc, I have migrated all config files. After resolving config issues, as soon as I restarts Nagios, it starts showing all hosts and services. But, as NRPE/ NSClient++ are yet to be re-configured and started, many services are failing.

So, I want to disable notification for all hosts and services. I want to know whether there is any way to stop notification for all hosts and services.

Thanks & Regards,
Barun

Log in as an administrator, go to admin, monitoring engine status and click the x next to notifications.

Thanks @gormank! This is correct.

If for some reason you're still having issues you can also modify the nagios.cfg file in /usr/local/nagios/etc/ and change enable_notifications=1 to enable_notifications=0 - then restart the nagios service.
