Nagios Support Forum

Good morning all,

We've recently added switches into our nagios monitoring environment and are often getting alerts about flapping because network usage goes up and down as chunks of data are pulled or backups are run. This generates alot of flapping alerts. Where can we set custom thresholds for specific hosts/services alone as I don't want to modify the global threshold for just one switch.

If you go to the CCM -> host/service and edit the host/service you want to modify
On the Check Settings Tab you can set the "Low flap threshold" and "High flap threshold" for the host/service
