Is there a way to setup a Service such that when it is ACK'd, all other alerting Services (at that time) on the same Host are automatically ACK'd with the same ACK message?

@MrWoodward, You could acknowledge all services at once with the use of the Mass Acknowledgment Component. That's the only way I could think off. Otherwise, you could come up with your own custom script using external commands:

I think this is probably the correct answer for me.

Is there a way to trigger such a custom script to run when someone ACKs a service?

If not, I think I can integrate such code into the custom check plugin that I wrote. But I'd rather the script run on the ACK, rather than when it follows up on the next check.

@MrWoodward, I don't think you can trigger a script on a service acknowledgment without modifying the sourcecode.

Ok, thanks for the help. I think I know how to accomplish what I'm trying to do.

Sounds good! Is it OK if we lock this thread?

Sure thing. Thanks for the help.
