Re: [Nagios-devel] Orphaned Checks

Post by Guest »

I actually tried setting up a RedHat Enterprise Linux box with Nagios =
3.0b5 and have the same problem so it is not a FreeBSD problem. I am =
really stuck. I don't want to roll back to 2.10 because that will be a =
lot of work to redo especially the additive hostgroup lists. This has =
been instrumental in making the configuration of nagios much more =
succinct. My fear is that I have done something somewhere that is =
causing the problem and am to close to the problem.
If you need more information about my setup, please let me know. I can =
attach config files compiletime options, the works.

Regards,
David Futlon

Orphaned checks can come as a result of a number of issues, including=20
fork() errors, crashes in child processes, and out of memory/disk space=20
issues.

Have you noticed any problem with mem/disk usage when Nagios is running? =

Are you running with the embedded perl interpreter enabled?
