You should probably disable flapping detection instead of disabling flapping notifications. Back in time when I was using flapping (it was enabled in the first Nagios server I got my hands on) I always had the feeling it caused more trouble than the problem it solved. I guess it might be very useful on network-only monitoring where you want to know when a link is flapping without causing alerts, and will have staff on it as soon as an alert (incl flapping) comes in. - -- Thomas -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFIrLGH6dZ+Kt5BchYRArBrAJ47RXXw8/dCe6dJ4s9TEfyHnc5c0QCggt5R KYjlFOTUnP4ZbpwZkZ4grpY= =QsN4 -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by the Moblin Your Move Developer's challenge Build the coolest Linux based applications with Moblin SDK & win great prizes Grand prize is a trip for two to an Open Source event anywhere in the world http://moblin-contest.org/redirect.php?banner_id=100&url=/ _______________________________________________ Nagios-users mailing list Nagios-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/nagios-users ::: Please include Nagios version, plugin version (-v) and OS when reporting any issue. ::: Messages without supporting info will risk being sent to /dev/null
