Nagios Support Forum

Dear team,

When a host is down, i can get the email alert perfectly.
What i need is that nagios send only one mail and not much of them.

I have set the time interval but i´m not looking for this. I just want only one email when a host goes down

thanks thanks

This can be accomplished by setting the notification_interval directive in either the host or service definitions to 0. Doing this tells Nagios not to resend notifications for the same event. This option is also present in host and service escalation definitions.

Thanks dwhitfield.

i going to try setting this.

do you know if after set this, and i restart nagios services, nagios will send me the alert again because he thinks that it should send the alert?

No, Nagios will not send the alert again.
