Disable Notifications on Services if host is unavailable
Posted: Mon May 06, 2019 11:57 am
I'm not sure if this has been asked before or not, and my googling has been fruitless. That being said, I'm trying to find a way to stop Nagios from sending messages for each failed service on a host if the host itself has failed. Currently when a host fails I get at least 15 messages (one for the host and one for each service associated with that host or its groups). This generates a fair amount of noise and it would be nice to be able to squelch some of this so that users and admins don't become complacent to the barrage of messages.
