How can I change the no of attempts before an issue is emailed in Icinga ?

The description below uses the Icinga version 1.6.1.

Here are the steps.

  • 1. Go to /usr/local/icinga/etc/objects/templates.cfg
  • 2.Search for the template that you are working on. Say you are working on a template called name = linux-server
  • 3.Change the parameter called “max_check_attempts” to 3  ( Here you want to change to 3 attempts, before email is sent. Default Value is 10 )
  • 4. Restart the Icinga by running the command: /etc/init.d/icinga restart
