Nagios halted suddenly

[gwmoda]

Hi everyone,

Nagios(3.0.6) had suddenly halted during system operation.

Following is the event timeline.
######################################
Aug 27, 1:15 Warning: Check result queue contained results for host '%)', but the host could not be found!
Perhaps you forgot to define the host in your config files?
Aug 27, 1:16 Nagios halted
Aug 27, 9:00 Nagios manually started by the system administrator
######################################
Corresponding host("%)") is not registered in the Nagios(3.0.6).

We would need to find out the reason why the Nagios halted suddenly.
This issue is first time and It does not happen even once.

We are planning to upgrade to Nagios(3.2.3) during this year.
Will you be improved by upgrading?
Please tell me if the contents are improved.

Best Regards,
Masataka Oda

Do you have any of the following characters in your host name?

Code: Select all

illegal_object_name_chars=`~!$%^&*|'"<>?,()=

If so, you should remove them and restart nagios.
