I did a bit more testing, and found that the “dig” test cannot be the only service that is monitored for a host, or it will fail.
This configuration works for me. I have two hosts that I cannot ping, nor do I have any other tests. My hosts.cfg entries look like:
203.52.0.222 dns1.example.com # testip delayred=dns:15 delayyellow=dns:10 dns=SOA:zone.example.com,A:host1.zone.example.com,A: host2.zone.example.com,SOA:au noping 203.52.1.221 dns2.example.com # testip delayred=dns:15 delayyellow=dns:10 dns=SOA:zone.example.com,A:host1.zone.example.com,A: host2.zone.example.com,SOA:au noping
I wonder if it's the "testip" that I have here. I generally have "testip" on servers I test. If there's a transient DNS problem, I only want my DNS server to show a fault in Xymon.
