Im new to Nagios. But I might be able to help you out. Its best you change these values in the service template, witch is defined in templates.cfg in the sample configuration. There you need to look for these parameters,
check_interval 2 ; This one is in minutes. just set it to 30, for your case. retry_interval 1 ; This defines the check time for the checks after the first negative. (minutes :) max_check_attempts 3 ; And this is your notification limit. After 3 the check will go to a hard state and you recieve a notification. notification_interval 0 ; This defines if the notifications should be resent. 0 means no resends. service_notification_options w,u,c,r,f,s ; This will be useful to you to.. It defines what kind of messages you recieve. Check what those letters mean, so you find the right on for you. I recieve only warning and recovery. Hope this helps out. later Matej On Fri, Jul 24, 2009 at 7:25 AM, Thomas Kinghorn - MWEB <tkingh...@mweb.com>wrote: > Good morning List > > Apologies for posting such a dumb question but I cannot seem to find a > definitve answer: > > I am monitoring sip connections from a session border controller to our > various providers. > > The normal check times are too short and causing us to receive an excessive > amounts of “critical” alerts. > > I would like to change the following but am unsure as to wether or not the > times are seconds or minutes. > > > - The time between checks should be 30 minutes > - State should change to critical after the 3rd failed check > - Notifications should be only sent after the 3rd failed check (as > above) > - > > Apologies once again but I am a newbie to nagios. > > Many thanks. > > Tom > > > This electronic communication and the attached file(s) are subject to a > disclaimer which can be accessed on the following link: > Disclaimer<http://www.mweb.co.za/disclaimer>- or copy the following URL into > your browser - > http://www.mweb.co.za/disclaimer.
