Nagios Support Forum

All; I am running Nagios 4.3.4 on an Ubuntu 16 server that monitors several remote hosts. What I did was delete a bunch of checks in the Nagios server configuration but they still keep appearing in the web interface. I think the problem is that I had "retain_state_information=1" in nagios....

Thanks for the quick response. Now, the line that you posted for the service_description was what I thought also, but that didn't solve it.

As a test, I've also installed Nagios on an Ubuntu 14 server and it seems to display just fine. Has anyone se...

All; I am trying to upgrade nrpe to version 3.1 on CentOS 5 systems. I know, I know, CentOS 5 is ancient, but unfortunately, I cannot upgrade them. I upgraded openssl to version 1.0.2.l. First I do a "configure --enable-command-args --with-ssl=/usr/local/ssl", then a "make nrpe"....

All; I am using Nagios 4.1.1 and am monitoring 8 hosts and receiving nearly 8,000 service check results. All my plugins are sending results *passively* using nsca-ng and its working very well. All of the plugins are returning multiple check results so I can get away with calling as few plugins as po...

All; I've just upgraded my Nagios server from 3.4 to 4.0.8 (on CentOS 6) and am having an issue. When I make a config change and restart Nagios, it restarts normally and I can immediately check its status by typing "service nagios status" with it returning "nagios is running". Ho...
