Re: [Nagios-users] How to always send notify on ack

The default option for natstamon is to not send a notification, which is not ideal. Is there a way to lock the option to always send out? That would be counter productive. The point of notification is to direct attention to a state change. Once you've acknowledged the problem there is no need to notify you of it again, It would be the same as wanting your phone to continue ringing after you have answered it. It's possible I'm missing something, but what would be the benefit of this configuration if possible ?

Re: [Nagios-users] programmatic access to nagios state

I can see how one could do that via the web interface but that would mean parsing the html. Is there a more straightforward API/interface? Nagios writes the current state in a file called status.dat This file can be parsed to find the status of the host/service you want.

[Nagios-users] Distributed monitoring and dependencies
Good day all. I've taken over ownership of a very hacked and mutilated nagios installation in house, and I'm busy building a migration plan and designing the new nagios instance. I have some questions which the documentation is not making apparent, likely due to my lack of understanding nagios, not the documentation. We have 3 physical locations which will be monitored, which will likely increase, and I'm looking at a distributed monitoring setup as described in the documentation here : http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/distributed.html Now the documentation mentions : The purpose of the central server is to simply listen for service check results from one or more distributed servers. Even though services are occassionally actively checked from the central server, the active checks are only performed in dire circumstances, so lets just say that the central server only accepts passive check for now We are also looking at using dependencies between hosts and services across all locations, which according to the documentation and my understanding of it, might be a problem. Execution dependencies are used to restrict when active checks of a service can be performed. Passive checks are not restricted by execution dependencies Unfortunately the check scheduling logic link is still in TODO status, so I cannot explore further. Is my understanding correct ? If not, can you use distributed monitoring and host and service dependencies ? As a final question. I'd like to be able to monitor a single host from the different locations to be able to identify links going down using the above configuration. Would I have to configure the host 3 times for each nagios server or is there a different way.

[Nagios-users] Cannot use swapctl in the large files compilation environment on 23bit Solaris 10
Good day, I'm testing nagios from my 32bit solaris test machine and I cannot get check_swap compiled. The config.log for ./configure --prefix=/opt/nagios is as follows : In file included from conftest.c:89: /usr/include/sys/swap.h:50:2: #error Cannot use swapctl in the large files compilation environment I've looked around n the net and there seems to have been issues before and code changes were made to fix this and seems to have been tested on solaris 9 according to the entry in Changelog.
