Nagios Support Forum

Hi JsMurphy, - not using NDOutils or mySQL - RamDisk only used for status.dat + objects.cache I am a bit afraid of using Ramdisks for we use the PNP4Nagios data and Nagios status data for essential business reporting, we cant afford to lose such data in case of OS failure or a kernel panic. Of cours...

Hi Hardware-Tweakers, we run a Nagios 3 with +3000 checks, this sends the check latency to the sky. Its due to the disk access, I was told in this forum. I was able to relocate the status file to a RAM disk but the latency still sucks. :( Now we are going to build a 19" server with SSDs for tha...

Jsmurphy, thanks for the hints but in my case its changed nothing.
Using ESXi 3, the best performance is shown when using aggressive settings i.e. CPU reservations + priorities.

Lowering the number of cores gives no positive effects.

Ill try to move as much as possible to ramdisks.

Hi! thanks for your reply! I have finished the first suggestions (object file). It rocks! It reduced Service Check Latency to 1/3 of the previous value. Btw, I couldn't find any explanation of the latencies table (Tactical Overview, upper right corner)... I guess the smaller the values - the better!...

Hi, Setup: -------- We run a Nagios 3 Core with the check_wmi_plus plugin. The plugin uses Zenoss' wmic, which Ive compiled from source. Nagios runs under Debian Squeeze in a VMware ESXi Hypervisor. The Linux has plenty of RAM + 4 Cores with 2,3 GHz each. The Nagios installation checks about 300 Hos...

Probably solved:

Caused by my tests, the service went into flapping --> notifications were suppressed. Now it works.

Hi,
we have got the following setup:
- We send notifications for CRITICAL states once in 24h (notification_interval 1440).

We would like to add notifications for RECOVERY sent immediately, means to override the above setting ("r" only).

Any idea if its is possible?

Good afternoon! Does anybody know how to implement one or multiple buttons in the Host View to launch a login session to the host in question? It needs to support multiple protocols: RDP, SSH, HTTP(S), HTTP:SpecialTCPPort. I have implemented this using the EXTRA ACTIONS BUTTON, but in such way I can...
