Disabling Nagios in the event of network card failure.

[Kristan Webb]

Hi All,

Hopefully an easy query.

We run Nagios 3 on an Ubuntu box and I'm looking for a way to stop
Nagios falsely reporting services/hosts as down/unknown if, for example,
the network cable was pulled out of the server / the card failed. This
has happened recently for over an hour and now all hosts/services have a
false hours downtime. 
I'm not too bothered, but I like to try and keep things as neat as
possible.

Does anyone know of a way of preventing this? All I can think is some
way of detecting when the server has lost network and then automatically
quitting / disabling Nagios?

Thanks in advance.

Kris
