Let us know if there appears to be improvement on this after removing some of the extra software that was bundled with gnome.

Also, if the write config tool is still failing, the issue almost has to be permissions related. Can you run the following and show us the output?

Code: Select all

ls -l /var/www/html/nagiosql

and also run:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagisoxi/scripts/reset_config_perms

and then verify that the files in /usr/local/nagios/etc are owned by apache.nagios?

[cwscribner]

This was my response on the other thread (which I marked as solved).

So I removed the Gnome group and setroubleshoot and that freed up a ton/i] of RAM and CPU. Now Nagios, MySQL, and httpd are top 3 and the RAM usage reduced 75%. Seems like that setroubleshoot really hogs resources...I'll have more device additions in the upcoming weeks so I'll close this thread for now as solved and keep you posted on further developments.

Just to reiterate the current problems I'm having...

Auto Discovery Wizard: Interface is incredibly slow and frequently fails at various steps during the process. Especially during the last step of applying the config.
Missed Sync/Slow device intake: It seems like the database is very slow to add devices. I have devices with missed sync statuses that were put in several days to almost a week ago. Many of the changes are not showing up in Nagvis or on the Statusmap.

[mguthrie]

Do you have anything telling in the /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log file. Normally it will log state changes and events, but if you see anything in there related to ndomod or ndoutils can you post that log data?

[cwscribner]

I did a grep for ndoutils and ndomod but only got a return from the archives for ndomod. Attached is the output.

[mguthrie]

Ok, that appears to be be clean from sync issues with ndoutils.

So I'm noticing there are multiple issues/symptoms on your install, some of which have been resolved, some haven't. Can you give us a recap of where things are at on your system, and what problems still exist? Were you able to offload the MySQL DB to another system? I'd like to make sure we have a clear understanding as to what still isn't working.

[cwscribner]

I haven't been able to offload the mysql database for my customer yet. We've put in an order for a second server to move it onto so that's on the horizon.

Recap:

• Autodiscovery wizard is incredibly slow and often fails to input devices on the last steps. Tends to just timeout and display a blank page

• Lag in device application. There are devices that persistently miss the sync. Several changes never apply to the Network Status Map. Some of these changes are weeks old and still haven't changed on the status map.
