Run Command When Service Down

[William Schroeder]

That's what I ended up doing something similar. Oddly though I sent the emails that just came through a couple of months ago. The use of notifyalso is probably a better way than I did it. I'll change mine to that, thank you for the feedback.

looks like <someone> just kicked the list.  if you're still looking for a solution, you can use a notify method to kick off your code.  it'll be triggered as soon as the object is "down".


Method "somemethod" {
    qtime: 0
    nolotsmsgs: yes
    command: /usr/local/script/somescript -a %R }


Host "test1" {
     Service Ping {
      notifyalso: somemethod:
      # or, to also send an argument-
      #notifyalso: somemethod:someargument
     }
}
