Any suggestions on how I would go about doing this? I've been testing this out for the better part of the day, but still get the following error(s) on the flyby test:
Error: Service check command 'check_smtp' specified in service 'SMTP' for host 'aykshared' not defined anywhere! Checked 7 services. In the hosts.cfg file, I have the following: define host{ name Linux register 0 check_command check-host-alive max_check_attempts 10 check_period 24x7 notification_interval 240 notification_period 24x7 notification_options d,r,u,f contact_groups localadmin #notification_enabled 1 #event_handler_enabled 1 flap_detection_enabled 1 #failure_detection_enabled 1 #process_perf_data 1 retain_status_information 1 retain_nonstatus_information 1 } define host{ use Linux host_name aykshared hostgroups linux_aykshared alias AYK PING address 1.1.1.1 } #define host{ #name Linux-SMTP #register 0 #check_command check_smtp #max_check_attempts 10 #check_period 24x7 #notification_interval 240 #notification_period 24x7 #notification_options d,r,u,f #contact_groups localadmin #notification_enabled 1 #event_handler_enabled 1 #flap_detection_enabled 1 #failure_detection_enabled 1 #process_perf_data 1 #retain_status_information 1 #retain_nonstatus_information 1 #} #define host{ #use Linux-SMTP #host_name aykshared-smtp #hostgroups linux_aykshared #alias AYK SMTP #address mail.server.com #} In the services.cfg file I have the following: define service{ name basic-service is_volatile 0 check_period 24x7 max_check_attempts 15 normal_check_interval 5 retry_check_interval 1 notification_interval 240 notification_period 24x7 register 0 } define service{ use basic-service name ping-service check_command check_ping!100.0,10%!500.0,40%!5 notification_options u,c,r,f register 0 } define service{ use ping-service hostgroup_name linux_aykshared servicegroups shared service_description PING contact_groups localadmin } define service{ use basic-service name smtp-service check_command check_smtp notification_options c,r register 0 } define service{ use smtp-service hostgroup_name linux_aykshared servicegroups shared service_description SMTP contact_groups localadmin } I commented out the second half for the time being as it didn't work, but that is what I have. Also, please note that I do not want to define 'aykshared-smtp' as a new user but would like to have it all under 'aykshared'. This is mostly for us when we view through the web interface, so all the checks are under'aykshared' host. I tried using just host {}, but of course that did not work. When I uncomment the above part, I still get the same error, that it was not defined. Thanks for the help! P.S. Before I get jumped at for not replying to a specific mailing list, can someone please tell me how I can do that? Each "reply" button seems to be replying directly to the poster and not the whole thread. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
