performance HOST graphs not updated

Post by talalmog »

hi,
performance HOST graphs not updated.
i saw that if i delete the file:
/usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/serverName/_HOST_.rrd
it created again and the graph start running...
i dont want to delete it from all servers because i'll lose the history, is there any thing i can do?

i followed this URL:
https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=149
i had a problem to install "perl-RRD-Simple" but i tried to run the script without it.

it didnt solve the problem, on the log i didnt see "_HOST_.rrd" fixed

anything else i can do?
thanks

Hello @talamog,

Please run the following and post the output to see to check the spool directory to see if the files are not getting processed.

Code: Select all

ls /usr/local/nagios/var/spool/perfdata/ | wc -l
ls /usr/local/nagios/var/spool/xidpe/ | wc -l
Next verify that your Nagios user account is not expired:

Code: Select all

chage -l nagios

Hi @Talamog,

There's a timeout error in the performance data log.
2019-02-24 07:00:55 [13811] [0] *** TIMEOUT: Timeout after 5 secs. ***
2019-02-24 07:00:55 [13811] [0] *** TIMEOUT: Deleting current file to avoid NPCD loops
Please open up /usr/local/nagios/etc/pnp/process_perfdata.cfg and change TIMEOUT = 5 to TIMEOUT = 20.

Let me know that takes care of the issue for you.
