Re: False Alarms on NRPE Service Checks

Second bump a month later. Really Nagios, no idea or suggestion? I really need to cut out these false alarms. I can't expect my people to take Nagios alerts seriously if it cries "wolf", and many times a day.

New Install Successful, but no web interface at URL

I just installed XI as root, using the curl script, which ran successfully, no error reported. I was directed to http://128.61.254.53/nagiosxi/, but get a message that site cannot be found. I've cycled nagios, httpd, and mariadb, and all are running. What do I need to check next?

Re: you do not have permission to view information for any of the hosts you requested

No, they do not. And neither do the hostgroups. Providing an entry from servicegroups.cfg and hostgroups.cfg sample service group in servicegroups.cfg: # Mon Aug 14 00:02:58 2023: define servicegroup { servicegroup_name phoenix-slurm-sg alias phoenix slurm sg Nodes } sample hostgroup in hostgroups.c...
