Do you have instructions on how to roll this back and remove gearman from the picture?

The only thing you need to do to remove the gearman line from the nagios.cfg which looks something like this

Code: Select all

broker_module=/var/lib/mod_gearman2/mod_gearman2.o config=/etc/mod_gearman2/module.conf eventhandler=no

Then fully stop nagios and start again

Code: Select all

service nagios stop
killall -9 nagios
service nagios start

Alrighty. I will work on this tomorrow.

Great! Just let us know when you have new info.

Apparently the check_icmp plugin required the setuid and user permission to be changed on the nagiosxi server when I removed the gearman workers. so I had a large amount of criticals. Now I am left wondering if there will be alerts sent out when I reenable notifications. How can I prevent folks from getting notices?.. when I reenable notifications.

@emartine, Did you disable notifications in GUI interface? If that's the case than any old critical notifications will not be sent out when you turn them back on(they're not spooled by Nagios). However, if you still do have services in a critical state than new notifications will start coming. Does that make sense?
