The Nagios.log shows numerous events, both Warnings and Critical but no notifications for any of them. If it were simply a case of my email not being sent, I can troubleshoot that. Given that Nagios seems simply to have decided not to send notifications, I’m really stumped about where to start looking. <o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> I’ve taken a look in my templates and found that my hosts, services, and contacts all have notifications enabled and are set for 24x7. I don’t see any reason for Nagios not to send notifications at all, but it has definitely decided not to do so for some reason.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <div> <div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'> From: Kevin Davison [mailto:kdavison@innosphere.ca] Sent: Friday, July 24, 2009 6:11 AM To: Nagios User List Subject: Re: [Nagios-users] Antwort: Notification oddity<o:p></o:p> </div> </div> <o:p> </o:p> I thought of that and had a quick look around. I logged into the the MTA on Nagios via Telnet and was able to successfully send mail so I know that mail is capable of being sent. Nagios is also having no trouble sending some critical alerts. The weird thing for me is that if the messages were being stopped at the MTA level or by the relaying server then I would think that Nagios’ Notification log would still show that it attempted to send them. At this point there is no indication that Nagios even tried to send out a notification.<o:p></o:p> <o:p> </o:p> <div style='border:none;border-top:solid #B5C4DF 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'> From: Sascha.Runschke@gfkl.com [mailto:Sascha.Runschke@gfkl.com] Sent: Friday, July 24, 2009 3:16 AM To: Nagios User List Subject: [Nagios-users] Antwort: Notification oddity<o:p></o:p> </div> <o:p> </o:p> <tt>> I’ve checked my Contacts, as well as my Host and Service </tt> <tt>> notifications entries and all are configured W,U,C,R for 24x7.
