Re: Performance graphs do not display any data

Hmm, let me clarify this - you don't have an issue with one particular host and its services, but with ALL hosts, correct? Also, are these all network devices?

Can you run the following commands and post the output?

Code: Select all

ll /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata
yum list installed bc
service npcd status
tail /usr/local/nagios/var/npcd.log
tail /usr/local/nagios/var/perfdata.log

Can we back up just a bit on this one? Are *all* graphs broken, or just the graphs for the routers and switches?

Are you getting an empty graph image, or no image at all?

I am only monitoring linux machines at this point, no routers or switches. The graphs show up but there is no data. Originally the data was being populated as I would expect but now there is none. I do not know when it broke.

What version of Nagios XI are you running?

Lets make sure npcd is running ok.

Code: Select all

service npcd restart
Can you run the following commands:

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/nagios/var/spool/perfdata
ls -f | wc -l
Have you had a CPU load above 10.0 for long periods of time?

Load is typically in the 1-2 range, however performance data is missing ;-)

/usr/local/nagios/var/spool/perfdata
[root@sentry perfdata]# ls -f | wc -l

Would you be available for a remote session either this afternoon or tomorrow to take a closer look for this? If so I'll send a PM with time possible times.
