Hi

From my contacts.cfg I have (this is the first/top entry in the file):

Code: Select all

define contact {
        contact_name                    [email protected]
        alias                           Brian Ipsen
        contactgroups                   Drift
        host_notifications_enabled      1
        service_notifications_enabled   1
        host_notification_period        workhours
        service_notification_period     24x7
        host_notification_options       d,n
        service_notification_options    w,u,c,r
        host_notification_commands      notify-host-by-mail
        service_notification_commands   notify-service-by-mail
        email                           [email protected]
        register                        1
        }
When logging into the web interface, and checking the configuration for users, I see that "Service Notification Options" and "Host Notification Options" both are set to "None" ??

If I change the notification period, this change is reflected in the GUI - but for some wierd reason the Notification Options stays at "None"... ??

I'm using Nagios 3.4.1 on a RHEL 6.3 server

Regards
Brian

I'm not sure why you don't receive service notifications, but you've explicitly disabled host notifications by adding 'n' to host_notification_options.
