Nagios Support Forum

Hello mjr2015, Which version of Nagios XI have you deployed. You'll find the version number in the lower left corner of the home screen. And are you saying that all of your bandwidth checks are returning 0 in and out on all of your ports? If so, and you're running version 5.5.7 or 5.5.8, it's most l...

Hello xpertech, There are many explanations of Linux load average at the ready on the internet. The short answer is that the 3 numbers represent the 1, 5, and 15 minute average of CPU load.

Hello gregwhite, This is why I suggested that you may need to approach this from a different direction. This is not so much a limitation of our software but rather an architectural decision made when the software was first conceived. If the end game is to determine if the various interfaces are acti...

You'll need to create a host check for each of these IPs. The reason for this is that in Nagios XI, there is a one to one relationship between hosts and IP addresses.

Hello gregwhite, The problem you are facing is that from the point of view of your Nagios XI server, a host is defined by it's IP address either directly, or indirectly via DNS name resolution. If you could tell us at a high level what you're trying to achieve we could perhaps find an alternative me...
