Does nagios have a built-in and sane-to-use method for grouping alerts? For example, I want to hear when docs.fp.o is having troubles, and that's it. Or docs.fp.o + translate.fp.o, etc. Can nagios support that? Do we want to support that use? If yes, that would help with doing escalations, such that if I don't respond to emails within X minutes, sms is used. Otherwise, I can sub to sysadmin-users and filter out all but the docs.fp.o alerts. But then I lose the email => sms escalation. Meaning I'd personally probably dupe every alert to sms, just in case. :) Why should this matter if sysadmins are getting the alerts and responding already? In the case of most of our Web resources, there are other people responsible or affected by the slightest downtime. It would save sysadmins some hassle in informing people if we could have nagios take care of it for us. - Karsten -- Karsten Wade, 108 Editor ^ Fedora Documentation Project Sr. Developer Relations Mgr. | fedoraproject.org/wiki/DocsProject quaid.108.redhat.com | gpg key: AD0E0C41 ////////////////////////////////// \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\
