Still getting Alerts while removed hosts

Post by Rupender »

Hi Team,

I have been removed two hosts from Nagios xi with the help of CCM for last week. but still i am getting alerts about those hosts. while i rechecked couple of time with the help of command mode in /usr/local/nagios/etc/hosts and /usr/local/nagios/services. but there are no any existence of those hosts.

Please help me as soon as possible.

Thanks

What version of XI are you currently running? Can you pm one of us with the latest good config snapshot, and tell us what host\services are having issues.
Nagios-Plugins maintainer exclusively, unless you have other C language bugs with open-source nagios projects, then I am happy to help! Please pm or use other communication to alert me to issues as I no longer track the forum.

This is strange. I don't see these two hosts in your configs. You shouldn't be getting alerts. Have you tried restarting services?

Code: Select all

service nagios stop
killall -9 nagios
service ndo2db stop
service ndo2db start
service nagios start
Do you see any config errors, when you run the Write Config Tool?

Code: Select all

CCM->Tools->Write Config Files

I restarted nagios service couple of times but not ndo2db service. so, as of now i have executed all command what you have mentioned.

and following are the output when i do write Config Files. i don't think it's showing any kind of error.

Can you try to re-create that host with the same information you are receiving in the notifications? Then apply configuration? I'm curious to see if it errors out.

Actually the two hosts(RADshare 27 and 172.25.24.27) have same host address which i removed. so,is that caused this problem?

Yes that would have caused an issue, is that present elsewhere?

It's possible. BTW, when you ran the Write Config Tool, did you click only on the "Write" button? Do you get any config errors, when you click on the "Verify" button (warnings are OK)?
