Nagios Support Forum

Hi team,

We want to increase the response time of few servers. When we ping the host, the response is usually received within few milliseconds like below:

Reply from 10.147.109.21: bytes=32 time=133ms TTL=243

We want to increase this response time upto 500 ms to 800 ms through Nagios XI, the default response time is 200 ms or 300 ms.

Please let us know if it is possible through Nagios?

this depends on the plugin used for the check but it is usually a matter of adjusting the thresholds in the $ARGn$ fields for the host/service in the CCM

If you can show what is currently used, we can mad suggestions on how to modify it.

Hello,

For ping monitoring, we are not using any check command. I am attaching here screen shots for the same.

Please let me know if you need any other information.

It would be defined in the template, you can see what template is applied by selecting "Manage Templates"

Hello,

I checked the template. PFA the details for the same.

So to update this lets edit the service and select check_xi_host_ping for the command

then set the following for the $ARGn$ values $ARG1$ & $ARG2$ are for the warnings
$ARG3$ & $ARG4$ are for the criticals

Hello,

Thanks for your reply!!

We are working on it, there is a huge list of servers, so we need some time.
Will update you after we do the testing.

Please keep this topic open.
