How notifications work
Understand how Centreon decides to notify a contact, step by step, from the scheduled check and status type to notification periods and contact settings.
Configuring notifications
Configure notifications in Centreon on hosts, services, and contacts, understand inheritance rules, and troubleshoot notifications that are not sent.
Types of notifications
5 items
Dependencies
Configure physical and logical dependencies between hosts, services, groups, and metaservices in Centreon to avoid unnecessary checks and notifications.
Escalation
Configure notification escalations in Centreon to contact different contact groups as an alert persists, and choose the hosts and services they apply to.
Flapping
Configure flapping detection in Centreon Engine for hosts and services, so that resources changing status too often send one notification instead of many.
To go further
Customize the commands Centreon uses to send notifications to contacts, and forward monitoring events to third-party tools with stream connectors.
