Dynamic Interval for host and service checks

[salami]

Hi,
I need to have dynamic interval host or service checks based on host or service status. it means that when host or service is up or OK, i need to check it every 1 min and when status of host or service changed to Down or Critical, the check interval change to 5 min. if there is solution for this purpose, please help me.

thanks

You could set your check interval to 1 minute and your retry interval to 5 minutes. If you want it to continue checking every 5 minutes you would have to increase the max check attempts because it will revert back to the normal check interval once it reaches that limit.

check_interval: This directive is used to define the number of "time units" to wait before scheduling the next "regular" check of the service. "Regular" checks are those that occur when the service is in an OK state or when the service is in a non-OK state, but has already been rechecked max_check_attempts number of times.

retry_interval: This directive is used to define the number of "time units" to wait before scheduling a re-check of the service. Services are rescheduled at the retry interval when they have changed to a non-OK state. Once the service has been retried max_check_attempts times without a change in its status, it will revert to being scheduled at its "normal" rate as defined by the check_interval value.
