Nagios Notifications

To enable notifications the first step is edit contact email (example mail: test@gmail.com)

[root@BMNG001 soporte]# cd /etc/nagios/objects
[root@BMNG001 soporte]# vi contacts.cfg

1. Edit this lines:

define contact{
        contact_name  Soporte          ; Short name of user
        use           generic-contact  ; Inherit default values...
        alias         Soporte          ; Full name of user
        email         test@gmail.com   ; <<***** CHANGE THIS TO YOUR EMAIL ADDRESS ******
        }

2. And Then

edit hosts

vi /etc/hosts 

127.0.0.1   localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1         localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
192.168.160.6 BMNG001.ZEUS.loc BMNG001

Add your: IP - host.domain.com - HOSTNAME

[root@BMNG001 soporte]# service nagios restart

This is because I see that many have problems with notifications to 

the end and it is something simple but not everyone knows it.
