service_check_timeout_state issue

Post by delboy1966 »

Hi All

Again I am in search of the knowledge of the forum users.

Scenario:
Nagios 4.3.2
Worker nodes running mod_gearman-2-2.1.5-1

We have service_check_timeout_state in the nagios.cfg file to "u" for Unknown.
However when a service check on a worker node times out it goes Critical with the message "Service Check Timed Out On Worker: nag02"
When a service check timeouts on the main Nagios box it goes to Unknown as expected.

My question is do the worker nodes ignore the setting for service check timeouts from the Nagios config file or am I not doing some in the mod_gearman config files to tell it to do the same?

Thanks
Tony

Once again an answer that resolves the problem.

The config option wasn't there so I added it, reload mod_gearmans2_worker and forced a check.
It came back as Unknown.

Thanks
