[Nagiosplug-help] Monitor a host where ping is disabled.

[Behrouz]

Dear Hans,

You can simply delete the service (if you want to disable it for one host)
or delet the command file in commands.cfg but I suggest you to do like this:

If you want to disable it for one host try to comment the check_ping in
localhost.cfg file

Ex:

#define service{

#      use                             local-service         

 #       host_name                       localhost

#        service_description             PING

#        check_command                   check_ping!100.0,20%!500.0,60%

#        }

Or if you want to disable it for all hosts then edit the commands.cfg like
this:

 # 'check_ping' command definition

#define command{

#       command_name    check_ping

#      command_line    $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w $ARG1$ -c
$ARG2$ -p 5

#    }

You may also want to disbale 

# 'check-host-alive' command definition

#define command{

#        command_name    check-host-alive

#        command_line    $USER1$/check_ping -H $HOSTADDRESS$ -w 3000.0,80%
-c 5000.0,100% -p 5

#        }

Subject: [Nagiosplug-help] Monitor a host where ping is disabled.

 

 

Hello,

 

I want to monitor several hosts where ping is disabled.

How can I disable the ping (standard) check in Nagios.

Only i can connect to the port 443 so i want to use the check_tcp plugin.

 

Thanks in advance

 

Eikelenboom, Hans
