Nagios Support Forum

Nagios Service check Acceptor forwards the passive check results. Polling is active monitoring and Traps are passive monitoring. Does NSCA transfer all the polling checks as well to the Slave Nagios ?

Yes if you configure check forwarding from the main nagios instance, it will forward both active and passive results and include performance data with that.

Hi,

If we deactivate few services in the primary, will it be replicated in the secondary also using NSCA ? Or should we manually deactivate the service in Primary and Secondary as well.

If they are deactivated, and there are no checks coming in then they should not be passed over, that is my understanding and experience.
