Hostgroup and Servicegroup details missing after reboot

Post by cloberjewels »

Hi,

The Hostgroup Details and Servicegroup Details do not show up after a server reboot unless we go in and Apply Configuration. We've waited over 30 minutes after a reboot to see if it would eventually show up. I also made sure that before a reboot I did an Apply Configuration to insure it was in a good state. Any thoughts on how to resolve this?

Thanks

Whats the date on your server when you reboot it each time? Is this a virtual machine? Is the BIOS battery charged?

This is a physical system and the bios is fully charged. I have confirmed the bios clock and system clock are in sync at boot time.

As a potential work around Is there a command that could be run from the OS to apply a config on boot so that we don't have to have that automated step.

I do believe that the script that resides at:

/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/reconfigure_nagios.sh is the exact script that is run when you hit the Apply config button. Keep in mind, it must be run from its directory and cannot be run from a different directory.

Thanks - script ran fine. I need to schedule a time to reboot as the system is now in production.
