Hi All, I'm wondering if one can do this with Nagios. One can do similar things with check_mk unfortunately check_mk doesn't support anyway to define escalations so this needs to be done in nagios core.
Challenge 1 ========= With this set in nagios.cfg use_regexp_matching=1 use_true_regexp_matching=0 define serviceescalation{ hostgroup_name hostgroup service_description !fs_/app.*,.* first_notification 3 last_notification 0 notification_interval 15 contact_groups tsdmidrangelinux-admins-escalate } results in this error: Error: Could not find a service matching host name 'example1.blah.com' and description '!fs_/app.*' (config file '/etc/nagios/objects/escalations.cfg', starting on line 41) Challenge 2 ========= With this set in nagios.cfg use_regexp_matching=1 use_true_regexp_matching=0 define serviceescalation{ hostgroup_name hostgroup service_description ExampleService first_notification 3 last_notification 0 notification_interval 15 contact_groups tsdmidrangelinux-admins-escalate } results in this error: Error: Could not find a service matching host name 'example1.blah.com' and description 'ExampleService' (config file '/etc/nagios/objects/escalations.cfg', starting on line 41) This ExampleService would exist on another example2.blah.com . It would be nice if one could achieve this in Nagios. -- Divan Santana ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service. http://www.accelacomm.com/jaw/sfnl/114/51521223/ _______________________________________________ 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
