You can do many things via the external commands available to Nagios Core:

For services under a hostgroup:
https://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ex ... mand_id=84
https://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ex ... mand_id=83

For services under a host:
https://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ex ... mand_id=34
https://old.nagios.org/developerinfo/ex ... mand_id=33

Awesome! Did you have additional questions regarding this topic, or can we close this thread and mark the issue as resolved?

[Ayush Jain]

one more question please , in above links we have to enable and disable.Is there any command to check whether its disabled or enabled ( notification/active checks ) at this point of time.

Check the /usr/local/nagios/var/status.dat file which should have some sort of variables corresponding.
