[Nagios-users] multiple check_interval with single service check
All, Is it possible to use multiple check_interval based on the hours of the day for a single check? For example during day time service should be executed every 15 minutes and during night it will get executed every 2 hours. Can someone please show me how its done.

Thanks I don't think you can do such a thing in Nagios itself. If I really had to do such a thing, I would set up a script on the monitored server to send the check result to Nagios using send_nsca. If you run this script at intervals from cron, it is easy in the crontab to have it run more frequently during the day and less frequently at night. In fact you could have the crontab on the Nagios server and still submit the check result either via the command interface or via send_nsca again. I'm not saying I recommend doing this, as it would be a bit of a pain to maintain, but if you really must it's one way of achieving what you describe. I would say "hth" but that probably doesn't! Out of interest, why do you need to set things up that way? Cheers, Jim -- Download Intel® Parallel Studio Eval Try the new software tools for yourself.

Thanks You can do this in a few different ways. The easiest may be to define multiple hosts/services for one 'real' host/service. That would allow you to define two time periods and two different check_intervals. You would have to have the names slightly different but notifications could be made to look like they are the same host/service.

You could write a wrapper around the plugin to check the time of day and execute it as needed.
