Nagios Support Forum

I just pm'ed you the profile.zip file as requested - the load is mostly caused by the check processes but also nagios itself. We have the db offloaded to another server and that isn't seeing much load, just the front end web server is.

Good morning, We keep having an extreme load issue on our server where the load average on bootup especially, after nagios starts, will stay rather high for a good amount of time before finally settling down. As well we keep having issues where the checks stop until we restart the nagios service. I'...

Forget it - took a lot longer - about 35-40 minutes or so but now it's reporting again. Thanks for your help. I'm going to do the same to the rest that are broken.

Is there a difference in approaches? It seemed easier to just delete the files but that is not solving the issue. For example, we have a host with 4 drives. I deleted the RRD file for that check, let mrtg run over the span of 15 minutes, and it's still not showing any data. If I use rrdtool info it'...

I just sent 2 separate pm's to you with the system profile updated as well as the config for a broken system graph.

I have just sent over the requested files via PM.

Ok that fixed the load issue but now I'm not getting graphs for any of our servers that have more than 3 drives. If they have 3 drives or less it works, anymore and it shows no data. Is there something else that I can do now to fix those? They did work fine on the previous release.

Ok - I removed that and actually just restarted rather than waiting for it to die down. It's fine at the moment, do you think this is the ultimate fix for this problem or is it possible it could start up again?

Ok I did all that and the problem came back. I rebooted and I was good for about 5-10 minutes and the problem came back. Apparently it's mrtg that is causing this and we don't have any graphs anymore either. I just have a ton of those processes taking up CPU and holding up the server. This started r...

Good afternoon,

We just upgraded our server to 5.5.7 today from 5.4.13 and now the load on our server is over 80. I'm using a simple w -u to check the load. How can I check what/why is stuck and causing our CPU run queue to go through the roof?

THanks,
