You could try increasing it some more to 30.0 or 35.0

I will give that I try. I wasn't sure at what level it becomes counter productive to increase it.

[abrist]

It all depends on the available resources. With the number of cores in your XI box, you should be able to push it up quite a bit.

I have moved my load_threshold up to "30.0"

[root@fldmon ~]# tail -f /usr/local/nagios/var/npcd.log

so it's not being Terminated, but the perfdata.log hasn't had any new entries since my postregsl failure on 2012-12-20.

Is there a safe way to dump or reset the perfdata??

[abrist]

Looks like you are still having TIMEOUTS. Did you change the TIMEOUT setting in process_perfdata.cfg? (I know you said you did earlier but you might want to double check) You may want to restart the npcd process one last time while checking if there is more than one npcd process running (if there is, kill it).

Code: Select all

ps -aef | grep npcd

service npcd stop

killall -9 npcd

service npcd start
