Alert triggering every friday for the particular service

Post by informatica »

Hi Team,

we need help on the alert triggering for the particular service.
Ex: we have one service and the service should trigger alert on every friday on certain time irrespective of Warning or critical or OK. Could you please help on this.

If you're really referring to an alert instead of a notification you could just submit a problem result on a cron job:

https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... and_id=114

Nagios will only send notifications on state changes:

https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... tions.html

You'd probably be better of doing something like this as a cron job if you want a notification:

https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... and_id=135


Those could also be submitted via the API as well, see here on your system:

Will those meet your needs?
