Hello All,

I am trying to setup nagios alerts for services. I have add a definition like max 5 check with 1 min retry interval. But I am getting notification in SOFT state also result into multiple notification. I want to avoid notification if services shows fluctuation for few minutes. Eg. if mem usages cross thresold value for 2 min. then nagios need not send notification. If the threshold value be same for 5 min then it should generate alert.

Please provide me some hits to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.

Check out the documentation, it is quite extensive.

Regarding your specific question, Object Definitions is a good resource specifically regarding the first_notification_delay directive.
