I'm very much a nagios-newbie, but I'm guessing (from reading my Pro
Nagios 2.0 book the past few weeks) that you'd use a combination of:
define service{
service_description loadbalancer-warnings
is_volatile 1
max_check_attempts 1
active_checks_method 0
passive_checks_enabled 1
...
}
You'd supposedly use the send_nsca command on the remote host to send a
warning message to the NSCA daemon on the nagios host?
(I haven't tried this yet - and don't completely understand it - but it
was in the "Integrating Nagios" chapter where it talks about syslog-ng /
snort integration.)
