You likely would need to increase the load_threshold in /usr/local/nagios/etc/pnp/npcd.cfg

Currently you likely have this

Code: Select all

load_threshold = 20.0
I would recommend updating to 10 time the quantity of CPU's you have allocated to the server, so if you have 4 CPU's set this value to 40.0

Code: Select all

load_threshold = 40.0
Then restart npcd

Code: Select all

service npcd restart

Hi @Talamog,

Are you graphs being updated now? It's not uncommon to see those in the npcd logs and it means the system load is high and it will stop processing performance graphs to help keep the system running smooth as possible ( and possibly sacrificing some points on your graphs).

You can adjust the max threshold in /usr/local/nagios/etc/pnp/npcd.cfg by increasing load_threshold = 10.0 to a higher setting.

Please keep in mind NPCD will then consume more resources and can affect system performance.

You can run the top command to find out which process are using the most resources.
