Create services dynamically for a specific host

[Daniel Wittenberg]

This is something you could write, to watch the logs and create the service config files for services it doesn't know about, but would require some knowledge about what services you had coming in.  It could be an interesting add-on.

I have gone through this article. Not of much help to me :(

Is it somehow possible that nagios fetches service name from passive check sent to it and display it as it is to nagios home page?

I don't think you can do exactly what you are proposing, but  you might consider this alternative ...

Hi,

I have some 150 services that I wish to monitor using passive checks to Nagios.

Is it possible for Nagios to dynamically display these services as it received the check without specifying the exact service name in the configuration?

Please suggest if there is any way out to get this done.

Thanks & Regards,
Sakshi Anand
