If you delete all the hots/service configs and then force a write , verify and apply config, do you still have the issue?
1. Go to CCM --> Write Config Files.
2. Click "Delete" and then "Write" and then "Verify".
3. If the config verifies ok, go ahead and apply config. If it does not, post the errors from verify here.

It's possible that you have multiple instances of nagios or ndo running. Try stopping/starting services:

Code: Select all

service nagios stop
killall nagios
service ndo2db stop
killall ndo2db
service ndo2db start
service nagios start
Let us know if this solved your issue.

That looks to have resolved it :D Thankyou

How does the server get in that state and what would you recommend as the best solution for it?

I suppose nagios didn't restart properly for some reason. Anyway, I am glad the issue was resolved. I am locking this topic. If you have any more issues/questions, please start a new thread. Thanks!
