Re: [Nagios-users] Nagios flooding outside email addresses
What is your definition for rechecks and notification intervals ,and first and last notifications ( see service and service escalation definitions )? Also how many issue does your system has that are un handled that nagios is producing so many alerts ? On 13/03/12 13:34, Jeremy Gibbs wrote: I have sendmail setup to use our smtp server as a forwarder. This has been working great so far. The only issue I am seeing is, outside email addresses such as a cell number @vtext.com http://vtext.com is having messages sent to it several times a second; until Verizon finally rate limits the messages. This in turn queues up the messages, and a large number come through again. This does NOT happen with any internal email addresses. If I check the mail log, I can see Nagios sending the message several times a second to only outside email addresses and only once to internal email addresses. I am not sure what the issue is.

Re: [Nagios-users] Ackowledge this service link is missing
Andrew, I don't know that this is it, but you can only acknowledge something that is in a hard critical state. That is, it has to have hit the threshold of failures before it is considered in a hard state. The service details should tell you if it is, but I've had times where I've thought the same thing only to realize that the service hadn't gotten all the way to a hard state just yet.

[Nagios-users] escalations question
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
