Yes, it seemed like your load was exceeding the default (10.0) value, and npcd was not running. Depending on the number of CPUs that you have, you can increase the threshold in the npcd.cfg (x number of CPUs):

single core -> load_threshold = 10.0
dual core -> load_threshold = 20.0
quad core -> load_threshold = 40.0

You can also increase the timeout value in the "process_perfdata.cfg", let's say from 5 to 10.

Restart npcd:
Depending on your server's resources, npcd can eventually "catch up" with processing these files. You need to watch the load on the server. The other option would be to delete all of these files (see my previous post).

Still receiving the error even after deleting the files
New files appear but they dont seem to be getting processed but I just rebooted
will cahnge config settings and restart and see what happens

Sure - let us know. The files should be processed if npcd is running. Were you able to start npcd successfully?

Looks like files are processing but still getting the IMUXSOCK errors and stale threshold results on some checks

Go to Admin->System Profile->Download Profile->save and email us the "profile.zip" to [email protected]. Put: "Re: IMUXSOCK Begins to drop messages" in the email's subject. Thanks!
