Hello.

Then it appears there are multiple definitions found for the same service. Take a look at your configuration files and see where they are occurring. You should be able to run grep -r -A 5 -B 5 'Total Processes' /usr/local/nagios/etc/ to help search through them all.

The result is :

Code: Select all

[root@localhost ~]# grep -r -A 5 -B 5 'Total Processes' /usr/local/nagios/etc/

How can I solve it?

You have the a service definition in these files that have the same service_description:

/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/localhost.cfg
/usr/local/nagios/etc/services.cfg

You need to remove / comment out the duplicate services in one of these files. I would do this to the file:
/usr/local/nagios/etc/services.cfg

Thank you.
I did it and problem solved. I hope it cause not any problem.

Is it alright if we lock this thread and mark the issue as resolved?

[hack3rcon]

Yes. I remove the lines and problem solved.
