[Nagios-users] Alerting

[Jeremy Gibbs]

Now, I know this can be done but here is the question.

Say our core switch goes down, I obviously don't want to be alerted about
every single device that has subsequently gone down as well. I know since
the core is down, everything is down. How do I setup these types of
relationships so alerting is dependent other another object being up.

I would get alerts because we are using a SMS gateway and it would be able
to send SMS messages to our cellphones.


Thanks

you need to put in the config files of the nodes connected to the switch that the switch is a parent device. I do not have the syntax in front of me, but I think it is just
parent <device name>

It's "parents", just for the sake of completeness.
