Hello...
I have a question on how to clean up or disable the state changes for the following setup below. The question is driven from the cleaned up console as well as notification reporting. See background below. All feedback is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Background:
On all of our Windows Hosts, we have two service checks that has the notifications disabled. This was the Windows Team requirement. The requirement being met is to only collect performance data on the service checks being executed. Right now, a high majority of these are in WARN and a lot in CRITICAL states. This clutters up the console's services that are in those two states and reporting of notifications that are disabled. With that said...
Is there a way to disable the state reporting of the service check that wouldn't change the performance collection of the service check? And by doing it in such a way that it could stay out of the large number of reported states? Although, subjective, it would be nice to drill down to "real" CRITICALs via the console and not see huge numbers of the CRITICAL performance checks. Please let me know if there's a way to do this even though this is a bit unorthodox.

Re: Performance Only Service Checks
I'm not sure what these 2 service checks are but could you set the warning and critical thresholds so they are never met leaving them in an always OK state?
there is no way to disable state reporting but the above would solve the issuejstormshak wrote: Is there a way to disable the state reporting of the service check that wouldn't change the performance collection of the service check?

Re: Performance Only Service Checks
They are for the CPU and Memory checks and by setting this as a high threshold on WARN & CRIT did the trick. That was a good suggestion and easy enough. Somehow after reading this I should have tried that! LOL. Thanks for the help! Please proceed to close. Thanks!
