Lets start by tailing the perfdata logs:

Code: Select all

tail -25 /usr/local/nagios/var/perfdata.log
tail -25 /usr/local/nagios/var/npcd.log

You are experiencing timeouts. Increase the threshold by editing:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/etc/pnp/process_perfdata.cfg
Change:

Code: Select all

TIMEOUT = 5
To:

Code: Select all

TIMEOUT = 25
Save out and restart npcd:

Code: Select all

service npcd restart

Have you added any checks as of late that may have increased the time necessary to receive and process checks? Or maybe some other tasks like backups, etc?
