Your interpretation will not work AFAIK. The post you reference is about limiting the maximum number of notifications sent to a contact. Your original question appears to be asking about how to send all notifications to 'an email address'. They appear to be opposite problem statements. Please restate your question, being as clear as you can about what you're trying to accomplish. For example, does 'all notifications' mean all notifications nagios would normally send for a specific service or a notification for every single non-OK service check? Does it mean all notifications for any host or service should all go to an arbitrary e-mail address? Does 'to an e-mail address' mean to a defined contact who is already in a contactgroup for that service or some other address? On the face of it, it seems to me you might just need to define a new contact and associate them with the host/service they should receive notifications about. P.S. I don't use escalations so be sure to respond to the list so that you expose your question to people who are more familiar with them, should escalations end up being what you need. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Come build with us!
