That doc you referred me to was what I was thinking about in my original post. Turns out I already have that defined for the perfdata. Note: Perf Data and not Nagios Status data.
This is how I have that set, and I did verify that it is still required as the initial data does have /n

Code: Select all

process-host-perfdata-file-bulk
/bin/sed -i 's/\\n//g' /var/nagiosramdisk/host-perfdata &&
 /bin/mv /var/nagiosramdisk/host-perfdata /var/nagiosramdisk/spool/xidpe/$TIMET$.perfdata.host

process-service-perfdata-file-bulk
/bin/sed -i 's/\\n//g' /var/nagiosramdisk/service-perfdata &&
 /bin/mv /var/nagiosramdisk/service-perfdata /var/nagiosramdisk/spool/xidpe/$TIMET$.perfdata.service

So this is still required. Also note: Change was required for ramdisk.

So, that is not a solution to this problem. It is a solution and is needed, but for something else.

I do wonder if you really intended me to comment out livestatus temporarily. That is only used for NagVis to read from. I will humor you though just because. I will have a chance to do that test later today.

More data - sql query related.

Since scrolling data is fun, but not much fun, I made a slight modification so I could get a better picture of my data. I migrated to Red Hat 7 in 2017, was using Red Hat 6 in 2016, so this was easy.

Code: Select all

select output, last_check from nagios_servicestatus where output like '%NRPE%' and last_check like '2016%';
| NRPE v2.15          | 2016-11-29 16:32:44 |

has NO /n in the responses in any line.

Code: Select all

select output, last_check from nagios_servicestatus where output like '%NRPE%' and last_check like '2017%';
| NRPE v2.15\n        | 2017-03-07 12:59:13 |

is full of /n responses in every line.

Does that help? I chose that data arbitrarily, but it does show a before and after.

Open up your status.dat file in vi and type :set list, now find the services that have the \n in the display, does it show the newline in the status.dat for any of the services?

Yes, newline is in status.dat

Code: Select all

^Iplugin_output=NRPE v2.15\n$

Hmm, I'm not sure where that's coming from, are you able to do a remote session? If so, let's move this into a ticket, please email [email protected] with a descriptive subject and detailed body and please include a link back to this thread so that we can get a remote session setup.

Thank you
