On all of them, The only change i made is aix 7.1 on fullinstall script in line 46 while installing on aix 7.1

and on aix 5.3 i have installed accodrding to the document.

Run the following and post the output back here:
Once it has been ran restart the server and check to see if it automatically starts now.

wcsdev:/# nohup /opt/nagios/bin/nrpe -c /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg -d
Sending nohup output to nohup.out.


Is this what you asked me for please let me know if i have to send you any other information

Yes looks good, now try restarting the AIX server.

wcsdev:/# nohup /usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe -c /usr/local/nagios/etc -n -d
Sending nohup output to nohup.out.
nohup: /usr/local/nagios/bin/nrpe: A file or directory in the path name does not exist.

I apologize i did not send you the complete output yesterday, this is the complete output.

Did you not run into that issue when you were installing NRPE? That command is outlined in this document explaining how to make NRPE automatically start when the system reboots:

http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... Nagios.pdf

In this document we have package for aix 5.3 .

Do you have one for aix 6.1 ?

Actually if you followed the Agent installer
http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... _Agent.pdf
(sorry for the confusion with multiple docs)

You can try the following

wcsdev:/# nohup /opt/nagios/bin/nrpe -c /etc/nagios/nrpe.cfg -d
Sending nohup output to nohup.out.
wcsdev:/#

I am getting this output and nrpe is still not running.

and also when

wcsdev:/# ps -ef | grep -v grep | grep nrpe
root 14549104 13828266 0 09:28:07 pts/11 0:00 vi 3-nrpe

Any idea what is vi 3-nrpe ( if it is a known issue ).

As the document states, you should be getting...
Restart the system and see if NRPE starts.
