Not graphing after ramdisk migration

Post by tssupremacy »

Hi all,

I've just done a ramdisk implementation in an attempt to alleviate high load on our NagiosXI host. The migration went fine, I followed these instructions http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... giosXI.pdf

But I notice now that the graphs are not updating. I can't find any relevant errors in the logs. We are running XI version 2012R2.9.

Can anyone point me in the right direction to kick off troubleshooting?

Thanks in advance

So I fixed the issue - here's the resolution.

As part of the implementation plan you need to also restart npcd. The daemon then had to catch up on processing perfdata but had so much to catch up on that processing would stop because the Nagios host load reached the load_threshold value (default of 10). After increasing this value (npcd.cfg) the daemon was able to catch up on processing.

Hey, at least it wasn't worse :)

I'll go ahead and lock this up now.
