| Is there a way for argus to be configured to automatically override
| something, if for instance, a Prog service returns a status of 2.
no, but...
| Reason, we are doing a number of tests on databases, and we'd love to
| automatically override paging, if for example the database was down. That
| way we get paged for the database being down, but don't get multiple extra
| pages as to other db check failures.
|
| I'd be nice to be able to do the something the same for the built-in tests.
| Yep nice to know the box is down, but don't really need to be told that
| every service tested is also down.
you could configure a group for the server and put the notify
on the goup instead of each service:
Host "mail.example.com" {
sendnotify: yes
Service TCP/SMTP {
sendnotify: no
}
Service Ping {
sendnotify: no
}
# ...
}
or, you could use depends:
Host "mail.example.com" {
Service Ping
Service TC/SMTP {
depends: Top:mail.example.com:Ping_mail.example.com
retries: 4
}
# ...
}
