Nagios 5.5 problem

Post by denisd »

Hello,

I have recently upgraded to 5.5. and have some weird behaviour. If I disable a service or a host in CCM, nagios is still performing checks for that service/server. It happens even if I delete the service/server from CCM. Nagios still does the checks.

I have tried to:
1. set server to active=no in CCM
2. apply config
3. poweroff server
4. still getting notifications about host down.

Tired the same on single service, still happens.

Best reagards,
Denis

What is the name of the "problem" service/host? Can you show us the actual email notification that you received about your host being down? We will need to look into your configs and logs, so please PM me your profile.
