I think there’s something wrong in my config as my server should only be accepting passive results, not trying to ping IP’s that it can’t even talk to in the first place (all hosts are behind firewalls and monitored via distributed servers). What variable controls these active ping checks? My services.cfg ping doesn’t seem to be the culpret because even if I comment out the entire PING service, nagios still does it..<o:p></o:p> <![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p> # Service definition<o:p></o:p> define service{<o:p></o:p> use generic-service ; Name of service template to use<o:p></o:p> <![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p> host_name *<o:p></o:p> service_description PING<o:p></o:p> is_volatile 0<o:p></o:p> check_period 24x7<o:p></o:p> active_checks_enabled 0<o:p></o:p> passive_checks_enabled 1<o:p></o:p> check_freshness 1<o:p></o:p> freshness_threshold 600<o:p></o:p> max_check_attempts 3<o:p></o:p> normal_check_interval 10<o:p></o:p> retry_check_interval 5<o:p></o:p> contact_groups linux-admins<o:p></o:p> notification_interval 120<o:p></o:p> notification_period 24x7<o:p></o:p> notification_options c,r<o:p></o:p> check_command check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%<o:p></o:p> }<o:p></o:p> <![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p> <![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p> <![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p> Gerald Wichmann<o:p></o:p> Senior Systems Development Engineer<o:p></o:p> Zantaz, Inc.<o:p></o:p> 925.598.3099 (w)<o:p></o:p> <![if !supportEmptyParas]> <![endif]><o:p></o:p> </div> </body> </html> This e-mail has been captured and archived by the ZANTAZ Digital Safe(tm) service.
