Hi all, I have a working nagios system on fc17, but I don't think I have the escalations configured properly. I have the following service templates defined:
At what point are the services converted to being escalated services in my sample below? define service { name standard-service-24x7 active_checks_enabled 1 passive_checks_enabled 1 parallelize_check 1 obsess_over_service 1 check_freshness 0 notifications_enabled 1 event_handler_enabled 1 flap_detection_enabled 1 process_perf_data 1 retain_status_information 1 retain_nonstatus_information 1 max_check_attempts 5 # number of min between checks normal_check_interval 4 retry_check_interval 1 is_volatile 0 check_period 24x7 contact_groups admins # re-notify every ten minutes notification_interval 10 notification_period 24x7 notification_options w,u,c,r register 0 } define serviceescalation { name critical-services first_notification 3 last_notification 10 #contact_groups linux-admins,noc-admins,techs-phones contact_groups admins-escal notification_interval 10 register 0 } I also have a number of services configured such as this: define service { use standard-service-24x7 host_name mailhost service_description MAILQ-pre check_command check-host-alive } define serviceescalation { use critical-services host_name mailhost service_description MAILQ-pre } I have also interval_length=60 in nagios.cfg. I don't understand why admins-escal isn't consulted after three consecutive attempts at communicating with the service. What am I doing wrong?
