Current situation is that the node is not reachable with ping. I still want to see the node in the dashboard, but want to get rid of the ping Critical state.
So I configured the following properties:
I created a rule Setup>Hosts>Host monitoring rules>Host Check Command that the host is always UP:
Feels like you have made a logical error here: Host labels value has not seems to conflict with your Explicit hosts values. Maybe negate the Explicit hosts?
Personally I would use rule Setup > Services > Service monitoring rules > Enable/disable active checks for services instead.
Set it to disable, set host label and specify service(s).
I tested just now in my network, and although the rule is matched, I don’t get it to work with PING either. Probably should have tested it first, before posting it.
There’s a rule to do state translate for hosts and services, change states from CRIT to OK or whatever you like, but this rule is not available in RAW what I’m using.
Maybe you can try if that works instead?
