Applied config files reverted at night?

[cellact]

Hi,
I've imported service configuration files to Nagios and applied configuration.
The new configuration took place accordingly.
When I got back to the office the next day, the config files reverted themselves to the old ones.

How can this happen?

Thanks,
Tal

Are you sure the apply config ran properly and nagios did not revert to the previous snapshot? If you apply configuration changes now, will they revert during your work day?

[cellact]

Yeah I'm sure,
They apply correctly and I can see the changes being comitted via core config manager.


I just tried re-importing them, I will report back if they revert again.

Thanks

Do you have puppet, or any other form of central config management software? Due to the database and flat file structure we wouldn't suggest using it with XI, but have also seen stranger issues. Otherwise, there are no crons or other scheduled jobs that should ever do this. While we are at it, what version of XI are you running?

[cellact]

Nope.
Anyways it seems fine now - it was either some weird bug or user (mine) error

Topic can be closed.

Thanks.

Interesting, let us know if this happens again!
