Hello there,
managed to transfer our monitoring from icinga 1.x to icinga2. We have over 800 hosts so it is crucial that notifications are working fine :). We have alerts via telegram. All is working good, but I noticed, that when a host goes down (DOWN state), we also receive alerts from separate services for that host. For example, all nrpe services for that host also notify us that nrpe is not reachable. If I understand icinga2 documentation correctly, this feature should be enabled by default, that alerts for services are suppressed when host is down? How could I achieve this?
This is part of my configuration:
template Notification "telegram-host-notification" {
states = [ Down ]
types = [ Problem, DowntimeStart, Custom ]
vars += {
notification_icingaweb2url = "https://monitor.test.com/dashboard"
notification_from = "Icinga 2 Service Monitoring <monitor@test.com>"
notification_logtosyslog = false
}
command = "telegram-host-notification"
}
template Notification "telegram-service-notification" {
states = [ Critical, Unknown ]
types = [ Problem, DowntimeStart ]
vars += {
notification_icingaweb2url = "https://monitor.test.com/dashboard"
notification_from = "Icinga 2 Service Monitoring <monitor@test.com>"
notification_logtosyslog = false
}
command = "telegram-service-notification"
}
