Well doing the restart would remove the cmd file. so nothing to write to.
despite the cmd file exists during reload, it doesnt seem like nagios process is getting the message from fifo.

this is running on centos 6.
created a package from the src and installed.

/etc/init.d/nagios reload would be the exact command.
Sorry for the late reply.

it was reload. sorry for the confusion..
nagios reload

prw-rw---- 1 nagios There is no problem with the perm or ownership for that matter. Watching the perm and ownership while doing nagios reload, the file doesnt get removed or changes perm as far as i can tell by doing watch -n 1 'ls- l nagios.cm' However, the external cmds executed during the reload ...

excuse my lack of info, 4.0.8 is what we are using. This is an issue. During the reload, even tho nagios.cmd exists and you can write to it, it's not being processed. This is an issue.

Could someone shed some light when nagios.cmd fifo is passing the cmds to nagios when it gets restarted? I notice that the cmds written to the FIFO is not applied properly while its restarting. The restart for us take about ~40secs, I see around ~40secs mark, that wproc are all registered.

Thanks
