Re: [icinga-users] Icinga2: implicit service/parent dependency

2014-07-14 Thread Christophe HAEN
Hi, yes I understand that it is inside the code, but I would assume that it is treated like any other dependency in the logic, or is it not the case? Ticket opened. I don't have logs no, however, I can take an example querying the DB: ariaDB [icinga]> select status_update_time, last_state_chang

[icinga-users] Services inherit contact info from host?

2014-07-14 Thread Dale Harris
Hi, I'm working with Icinga 1.11.4. I noticed when I trying to set a contact for a host that that contact was being assigned to the services associated with the host, so the services basically appeared to be inheriting the contact information. Is that the way it is supposed to work? I have few

Re: [icinga-users] Why ip address and not hostnames ?

First of all Thank You to all who have created and contributed to Icinga. I'm just getting here and hope to be helpful in the future. I have used Nagios for many years in smaller deployments and in the past I have never had to set the address property in a host definition. I have always depende

Sorry, I was mistaken because the Icinga-Web wiki page pointed to IDOutils as requirement. Now I see it was only for Icinga 1.x. After redoing everything, but without this unnecessary part, it still works without previous errors. So the problem was with my database only. Thank you for your patienc
