I have a service that sends only passive alerts to a Nagios server; there are no active alerts set up in Nagios for this service. Here is one of the passive alerts:
define service {
use default-template
hostgroup_name simple-servers-hostgroup
service_description service_alive
active_checks_enabled 0
passive_checks_enabled 1
check_freshness 1
freshness_threshold 900 ; 15 min threshold
check_command check_freshness_critical
check_interval 5
retry_interval 2
max_check_attempts 3
}
Is the check_interval
parameter used with passive alerts? If so, how does it work with the freshness_threshold
?
