…/nagios/objects/hostname
A directory is created for each host you defined during the installation procedure. There is a file for the host itself and a separate file for each Ingres installation specified on that host.
host.cfg
This file contains a generic service definition for all services on this host and is inherited by all the host services. During the setup procedure the EMA picks the first Ingres installation specified as the location of the host-wide service checks, such as memory and disk use.
installation.installationcode.cfg
This file contains the unique service checks for a specific installation on a specific host. The primary definition in this file describes the installation object itself. Its primary purpose is to define the II_SYSTEM value of the installation.
The specific service checks inherit all their default behavior from their parent objects, including the installation definitions, and are normally very short.
