Hi mcapra,
Thanks much for your reply, And is this the only Place (log_archive_path=/usr/local/nagios/var/archives) that i need to change the location ? and after changing will Trends fetch the data from the New Location?

I would think so. Here's the relevant lines in the source for trends.cgi:
https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/na ... 2458-L2500
Which references the
get_log_archive_to_use function:
https://github.com/NagiosEnterprises/na ... 1451-L1472
Probably still worth testing first, though.

All you would have to do it to edit the nagios.cfg file and change this line to the new path.
Code: Select all
log_archive_path=/usr/local/nagios/var/archives
Stop the nagios process
Copy the existing archive files to the new location and start the nagios process.
Then when you run any report, it will have access to the last 15 days of data and any new ones that are created.
BTW, the new folder has to have it's permissions set so the nagios user account can read and write to that folder.
