Hi guys, Just have a small licensing query. Say we have 100 hosts, and to fully monitor them we need to poll a Dell iDrac/ HP iLO interface to check for hardware faults, as well as NRPE/NCPA interface to check for OS and application faults. We're only polling one piece of hardware, but these are at ...

Turns out the hosts didn't have a check command set after being imported...

I did a bulk update of check commands on all of the hosts and set it to "check-host-alive" and things are working now.

Surprising that a host can exist with no check command...

A large number of host checks are stuck in a pending state... nagiosxi-stuck-1.PNG The host looks to be configured correctly, but the last check is shown as 1970??

PROCESSED 0 COMMANDS Could not resolve host: api.nagios.com; Name or service not known .......................................

This server is on an airgapped offline network.

It shouldn't be able to resolve the DNS for api.nagios.com, nor should it ever be able contact that address...

So I've removed everything from the xi_commands table in the SQL DB on the off chance that something was stuck in there. I tried submitting a new host check command, and the entry pops up in the DB.
