Parent/child is easier than dependencies and should be sufficient...

[Nagios-users] Nagios Alerts per Group

2009-12-18 Thread Goutos, Kevin
Hello everyone,

 

I'm using Nagios 3.2 to monitor approximately 100 servers, switches, and
routers.  I have them broken down into multiple groups.  Basically, my
problem is that when the network goes down for example, I'm getting
massive texts from every single device going down, when I would much
rather just say "A host in the 'Router' group is down".  Is there a way
to do this?  I would really appreciate it!

 

Kevin

Yes, if the console output from configure indicated so (I'll bet it did).

*nod*. You should rarely, if ever, have to look at config.log. Only if 
configure fails or shows some type of error and you know specifically what to 
look for in config.log to help figure out why it failed. Generally the 
./configure console output will tell you what you need to know though. Note 
that 99% of that output is informational. Developers tend to make the things 
that are really bad really stand out.

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios 30 seconds initial delay

2009-12-18 Thread Brandino Andreas
Exactly what I was thinking!
I just asked, because older versions haven't introduce that delay.
Moreover, I was searching if this was a "normal" nagios delay or a
misconfiguration on my side (interoperability with some package
installed or something I can't think at the moment)

Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios 30 seconds initial delay

Hi all,

my status_update_interval value: "status_update_interval=10"
Nagios need 35 seconds to show up...
