Nagios Configuration
Hello,
I'm having some difficulty getting Nagios configured. The following configuration gives this error:
Error: Invalid notification_interval value for host '12monkeys.wyattnetworks.com'
Error: Could not register host (config file '/usr/local/etc/nagios/localhost.cfg', starting on line 272)
I also believe there are probably other mistakes with my configuration...
Any ideas?

Re: Nagios Configuration
You need to include a notification_interval setting in your config. You can inherit it from a 'generic' host by creating a "template". Here's my template from my Nagios:
define host{
name linux-host
check_command check-host-alive
check_period 24x7 ; Monitor 24/7
normal_check_interval 5 ; Check host every X minutes
max_check_attempts 3 ; Check X times before sending notifications
notifications_enabled 1 ; Host notifications are enabled
notification_interval 0 ; Never resend notifications
notification_period 24x7 ; Send notifications 24/7
notification_options d,r,u
check_freshness 1 ; Make sure we always have fresh information
freshness_threshold 900 ; Data should only be up to 15 minutes old
event_handler_enabled 1 ; Host event handler is enabled
flap_detection_enabled 1 ; Flap detection is enabled
failure_prediction_enabled 1 ; Failure prediction is enabled
process_perf_data 1 ; Process performance data
retain_status_information 1 ; Retain status information across program restarts
retain_nonstatus_information 1 ; Retain non-status information across program restarts
register 0 ; DONT REGISTER THIS DEFINITION - ITS NOT A REAL HOST, JUST A TEMPLATE!
}The important line there is the "register" one. It tells Nagios not to load THIS host as a real host, it's just a template to hold settings for other hosts.
Then in the REAL host, include this line to source the template:
define host{
use linux-host
host_name file-server
alias File Server
address 192.168.x.x

Re: Nagios Configuration
Thanks very much - I've fixed it all up a bit now. Anything else you notice wrong? I can't actually test it locally and am getting someone else to which is becoming quite tedious.

Re: Nagios Configuration
