Hi list, is there a way to temporarily disable service checks on hosts while they're down? That's is, how can I configure nagios to not conducting service checks for any hosts it recognizes in a DOWN-state?
I'm running nagios in a distributed environment with 15 distributed servers and one central server. Now, I got the problem that if one monitored host is down, the distributed server monitoring that particular host recognizes it's state to be DOWN (within 30s), but the central server does not. It seems that the central server does just one host check. nagios does not conduct a second host check (but it's configured to do so) and neither sends out any host notification(s) ... [central server] active host checks enabled retry interval 1 max check attempts 2 check interval 60 As far as I understand it, nagios should check any hosts in a not-UP state (at least) 2x within ~60sec and should send out a notifications if the host is still DOWN.. What am I missing? Any help would be appreciated. ~axel ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
