It's very common to have to do, because paging options are generally totally different from those of the email notifications. Emails can safely be sent at night without disturbing anyones beautysleep. SMS'es and pages cannot, and generally people don't like being paged for WARNING states. So where does one draw the line? The current system works very well, assuming one accepts it from the start. It's a minor PITA to rework a perfectly good setup for it if you realize it afterwards, but the most common case is that it's set up from the start, so Nagios is clever in catering for that case. -- Andreas Ericsson [EMAIL PROTECTED] OP5 AB www.op5.se Tel: +46 8-230225 Fax: +46 8-230231 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
