status.cgi sounds for alerts on passive service checks

[Mike Dorman]

We use Opsview in our environment, with distributed pollers that are
separate from the master server, where the UI lives.  So from the
master's perspective, all service checks are passive checks, because
they are reported in by the poller servers.

 

As a result, we aren't getting any service alert sounds on status.cgi
because the logic checks servicestatus->checks_enabled and ignores
servicestatus->accept_passive_service_checks

 

I am not sure if that was by design or not.  But I've patched
cgi/status.c to also play sounds for alerts generated by passive service
checks as well.

 

All I did was update the logic to check
(servicestatus->checks_enabled==TRUE ||
servicestatus->accept_passive_service_checks==TRUE) instead of just the
first one.

 

I've submitted this patch to the Opsview community, and am also posting
it here in case there is interest in integrating it into upstream
Nagios.

 

The patch is against Nagios 2.9, which is a bit old.  But I looked at
the latest code in CVS and I think the patch will work there, too.

 

Thanks,

Mike
