Hi Luis,

You can add probes for a host, and it so happens that you can call the check_ping probe with manual arguments, including the target host argument. You need to check the box for the 'No Default Arguments' option as well. It's not very practical as it will not add your 'ping-only' host to Observium, just a ping probe. For limited cases this may suit your needs.

Ahmed.

Hi, I am using the ping probes and I just noticed that it seems to go critical when the RTA is too high....even if the ping is successful...like so: [cid:image001.jpg@01D98D92.10AB1750]

How do I change the RTA threshold ?

thanks
