Who disabled notifications

[dcolotti]

Is there any way of finding out what user disabled notifications for a particular service? Is there a log file (text based) that I can look at? I would like to write a script to notify us if notifications get disabled.

If you go to Admin -> Audit Log and search for the following you will see the user that ran the command

Code: Select all

DISABLE_HOST_NOTIFICATIONS

This only goes back a month. It looks like it happened before this time period.

I have 2 Nagios XI servers (East and West). I noticed on East that the file /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/cmdsubsys.log is in Ascii text and I could grab the info from this server. The file is also in a different layout than the West. The West is a data file, but I can vi it and look at it. It does not give me the same information as East. East gives me the start time of the command which I can convert to normal time via perl. Is there a way to convert the West cmdsubsys.log to ascii text or have it create a new file and have it written in ascii text?

[09:51:40]root@east:/usr/local/nagiosxi/var]# file cmdsubsys.log
/usr/local/nagiosxi/var/cmdsubsys.log: ASCII text

[09:53:16]root@west:/usr/local/nagiosxi/var]# file cmdsubsys.log
cmdsubsys.log: data

The top item you are looking at a SCHEDULE_FORCED_SVC_CHECK command which has different data

If these are the same XI version they should have the exact same format
