What else could be wrong? Does "Alert > History" have to be explicitly enabled in some way?
No. > This is a simple "ping" service so it does have performance data. Alert history isn't performance data. An 'alert' is logged when the service changes state (i.e. OK->CRITICAL for example). Your service has not changed state in the current log file. Nagios does not log performance data to nagios.log. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Open Source Business Conference (OSBC), March 24-25, 2009, San Francisco, CA -OSBC tackles the biggest issue in open source: Open Sourcing the Enterprise -Strategies to boost innovation and cut costs with open source participation -Receive a $600 discount off the registration fee with the source code: SFAD http://p.sf.net/sfu/XcvMzF8H _______________________________________________ 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
