Re: [Nagios-users] Limiting mail notification for clock drift

2008-11-13 Thread Kenneth Holter
Thank you for you patience. As you can see I'm not at all very experienced with Nagios (just recently set it up). :) I've reset the notification_interval to 0. Got confused for a moment as most of the other services are set to high numbers such as 1440. But you're right - 0 is what I need. I've e

I think I found one of the causes for the excessive notifacations - the notification_interval was set to 0. For almost all our services we have a high number (such as 1440), but this current value of zero must have made it's way into the code somehow. This is my current definition: define service

[Nagios-users] Limiting mail notification for clock drift

2008-11-11 Thread Kenneth Holter
Hello. I'm using Nagios 3.0.3 to monitor things such as time (synchronized with NTP) on our servers, and are getting a lot of semi-duplicate notification mails: As long as there is an error/warning, I get a mail notification every time the clock drift increases or decreases. Is there an option I
