Did you copy the UTC timezone in /etc/localtime?

cp /usr/share/zoneinfo/UTC /etc/localtime

Have you set the "ZONE=" in the "/etc/sysconfig/clock" as UTC?

Have you tried restarting the server?

Please, review the following document:

http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... m_Time.pdf

If this doesn't fix the negative duration, you may running the following commands:

Code: Select all

service nagios stop
rm -f /usr/local/nagios/var/retention.dat
service nagios start
Note: All of your hosts/service will be in pending state, and they will be rechecked.

How many checks are run every 5 minutes?
No actual idea here, our checks are all passive, having a look at "Admin" -> "Monitoring Engine Status" -> "Monitoring Engine Check Statistics" shows all 0, (due to the reboot i just did maybe? will wait some more minutes)

For some reason now both things seem to work ok.

The only actual change i did was the following to UTC as directed on the PDF @lmiltchev suggested:
You will also need to set the “ZONE” directive in /etc/sysconfig/clock:
nano /etc/sysconfig/clock
Change or add the following line within your timezone:
ZONE=”America/Los_Angeles”
Save out.
