We do not notify on acknowledgement, but encountered a situation where the service since recovered so any previous acknowledgement is gone along with any trace as far as I can tell.

My boss wants to know:
1. who, if anyone, acknowledged this alert from 2 days ago
2. what they said in the acknowledgement comment (i.e. how they claimed to have handled it).

I found an ACKNOWLEDGE_SVC_PROBLEM entry in auditlog.log which gives the who but not the associated comment. Is that stored anywhere?

It may still be in the DB, you can try editing the two dates and times in the below command to get a list, narrow it down to a little before and a little after the ACKNOWLEDGE_SVC_PROBLEM time in the audit log.

Code: Select all

echo "select nagios_objects.name1, nagios_objects.name2, nagios_acknowledgements.* from nagios_acknowledgements left join nagios_objects on nagios_objects.object_id = nagios_acknowledgements.object_id where entry_time between '2018-08-15 14:48:00' AND '2018-08-15 14:51:04';" | mysql -uroot -pnagiosxi nagios

The syntax would be:

between 'FROMDATETIME' AND 'TODATETIME'

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you
