Okay, let's say you have lots of distributed pollers, which should only load cfg files for their particular environment (both hosts and services). However, you'd like to manage the same set of "global" cfg files from the central server, and rsync them all everywhere. Is there any known way to make a poller just load a subset of cfg files, *without hardcoding it into each poller's nagios.cfg file*?
Sorry if this sounds a little crazy. I guess what I had envisioned was a way to push out a set of cfg files named by each poller's hostname, with the expectation that a poller could intelligently include only its own cfg file. Each of those files, in turn, would include a set of cfg_dir definitions to further include the directories needed for the poller to poll its specific environment. Nagios just appears to be very limited in the ability to declare variables in the configuration files. Yes, you can set macros, but that doesn't seem to help me with this particular situation. Any suggestions? ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
