Hi; I have defined a set of ~40 independent (fully unrelated) Tests for a large set of Webapplications (using bash shell scripts). I need all Tests to be executed every morning between 6 am and 8 am. So i have defined an appropriate time periods setting and i have configured all my tests appropriately. So far so well.
Now Nagios schedules all tests at 6 am instead of distributing the tests over the available time period (6-8 am). But i do not want to let all Tests run at the same time. I rather would like to "evenly distribute" the checks over the given time period of 2 hours, so that each check starts 3 minutes after the previous check started... But it definitively would be sufficient, if the checks just run sequentially (one at a time)... How can i achieve the one or the other best ? The only idea i have right now, is to define different time periods for each test. But that does not sound very clever... Is there any better option available ? i am using following software versions: NagiosQl - 3.0.2 nagios 3.0.6 Suse-Linux 11.1 One remark: I am not (yet) well experienced with nagios, but i have a good knowledge about linux and Suse, so if there is a solution available which involves modifying the files directly on the OS, i have no problems as long as NagiosQL will not break ;-) Thanks for any hint.
