Re: Monitoring Engine service randomly stops, no active checks performed, status.dat occasionally disappears

Hi danderson thanks for getting back to me. This was our initial thought that it may be due to resources. We took a rather blunt approach to begin with and threw some extra resource at the VM while checking to see if anything spiked, nothing seemed out the ordinary. Reviewing the nagios.log pulled f...

Monitoring Engine service randomly stops, no active checks performed, status.dat occasionally disappears

Hi, We've been running Nagios XI 5.8.7 for a few years internally for various server Monitoring. It's hosted on a Hyper-V VM running Centos 7 which was heavily based off the trial VM original provided. We then have our own status and alert site which uses the status.dat to populate.

Hi lmiltchev,

Thanks for you reply!

Thank you anyway :)

Re: Newbie help. Setting up WMI monitoring on process.

Hi Slansing, Thanks for you reply. I have tried to make this function work having it monitor windows calculator but this also has the same issue, detects that it is running and when it isn't but can't not get it to throw a warning when it isn't running. No I have not tried to run this from the comma...

Newbie help. Setting up WMI monitoring on process.

Hi people! Recently downloaded Nagios to have it monitoring my server at home. Setup the VM and have had it monitoring just a few basic hardware items no problem. I recently decided to setup monitoring a process (i.e. explorer.exe) which went fine, until I noticed it didn't change it status from OK ...
