No performance data

[tribbink]

Hi,

After cleaning up the files on /usr/local/nagios/var and /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata these directory remain empty.
Nagios is not collecting new performancedata.

[scottwilkerson]

What exactly did you remove? All the the files in those directories? the directories themselves?

can you run

Code: Select all

ls -l /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata

[tribbink]

Only the data, with the commands described in my last topic
http://support.nagios.com/forum/viewtop ... =16&t=7930
the directories stay empty.

Can you run the following commands, and show us the output:

Code: Select all

ls -ld /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata
service npcd status
cat /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg | grep process_performance_data

Have you tried restarting the npcd?

Code: Select all

service npcd restart

[tribbink]

Here's the output of the commands

drwxrwxr-x 3 nagios nagios 12288 Oct 24 22:41 /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata

NPCD running (pid 1498).

process_performance_data=1

Restart ncpd already done several times

After cleaning up the files on /usr/local/nagios/var and /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata these directory remain empty.

Can you outline what you cleaned up in these directories and why? Particularly the /usr/local/nagios/var directory? If you don't know what you're deleting in that directory you can easily make your system completely unusable.

What files remain there?

Code: Select all

ll /usr/local/nagios/var

Do you get any error messages showing up when running:

Code: Select all

tail -f /usr/local/nagios/var/perfdata.log

Code: Select all

tail -f /usr/local/nagios/var/npcd.log

look at: http://support.nagios.com/forum/viewtop ... 16&t=7930 here i asked how to delete old performance data. So i did.

Ok, it doesn't look like nagios is processing the performance data files that are being created.

can you post your latest config snapshot via PM to me, or send to [email protected]

[tribbink]

Hi Scot,

sended by email

[lmiltchev]

tribbink,

Just wanted to let you know that we received your latest configuration snapshot, and we will continue communicating via email. I am locking this topic.
