sent alert if X hosts go down in a host group

[tlawson]

Hello,
I have been trying to think of a way to send an alert if X hosts go down in a host group.

So far the only solution Ive come up with is using the scripts in cgi-bin from cron.


Has anyone done this already or know of a nicer way to do this?

There are a few different plugins for "Business intelligence" who's primary goal is more or less this kind of logic. I can't remember if BPI 2.0 works with Nagios Core but if it does that's probably the best place to start.
