Nagios resurrection after service stop

Post by eltrasimaco »

Hi, I want to stop nagiosxi from running in one machine; I issue a service nagiosxi stop; service nagios stop" commands, after that, the ps command shows some nagios cron programs running, but nagios seems stopped.
after a while, nagios starts automatically.
Is there any way to stop this "awakening"?
TIA

It should not start automatically, but it CAN start if another member of your team is interacting with the interface and performs an apply configuration.

If you want to stop all of this you would also want to stop crond on the system

Code: Select all

service crond stop

Maybe the "apply configuration" does have some sort of "automatic apply" after some time without doing the update? i am the only person who interacts with the interface

How frequently are you seeing the service restored?

Sorry for the delay, I had to disable nagios service completely; it got "awakened" after five or ten minutes, at this moment, I dont know why
