As the documentation indicates, notification_interval controls how frequently nagios will send out a reminder e-mail that something is still broken. If you want to receive a problem notification for a down host/service every 60 minutes until it recovers, leave it at 60. If you don't want to receive reminder e-mails set it to 0. I thought your complaint was that you were receiving the reminder e-mails so setting it to 0 would be the solution. Interval_length should be left alone unless you have special need to monitor more frequently than once a minute. If you do change it, it affects _all_ of the *_interval parameters so you would need to adjust those as well. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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
