found one error on "perfdata.log" in old history log

There seems to be 2 copies of the npcd daemon running and the duplicated copy needs to be stopped.
Run the following as root to kill off the process and start it up again.

Code: Select all

service npcd stop
kill -9 npcd
service npcd start

Then check the npcd.log file and hopefully you will not see these messages anymore which shows that there are 2 processes running,

is an already in process PNP file. Leaving it untouched.

Lets increase the timeout setting. Edit this file

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/etc/pnp/process_perfdata.cfg

find the Timeout setting and double the current value.

Code: Select all

TIMEOUT =

Save the file
Save out the file and restart these services by running

Code: Select all

service npcd restart
service nagios restart

Also, are there 2 copies of the npcd process running?
