[Nagios-users] Problem with Service Escalation 3.0rc3
Dear All, as stated above, I am running nagios 3.0rc3 and I seem to have a lack of understanding. I should state that I am new to nagios. I plan to have a host and service escalation for all hosts (with their associated services) belonging to a specific hostgroup. So here is what I have so far: define hostgroup{ hostgroup_namegroup1 alias group1 } define contact{ contact_name groupNetwork usegeneric-contact alias groupNetwork email mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] } define host{ usewindows-server host_name host1 alias Host 1 hostgroups group1 address10.0.0.1 parentsDUSSW00 contacts defaultContact } define hostescalation{ hostgroup_namegroup1 contacts groupNetwork first_notification1 last_notification 0 notification_interval 120 escalation_period workhours } define serviceescalation{ service_description* hostgroup_name group1 contacts groupNetwork first_notification 1 last_notification 0 notification_interval 120 escalation_period workhours } When I try to start nagios, it tells me that it Could not expand services specified in service escalation. The plan is to send a mail to defaultContact 24x7 and to groupNetwork only in the working hours. When I remove the service escalation, I only get notifications when the host is down (guess this is by design). Is there any other way how I can achieve this? Any help is very much appretiated.
