Okay, I'll have to admit that I can't come up with a good explanation for what you're seeing at this point, so I'm going to start taking shots in the dark here. First let's try making sure the database and filesystem can pass an integrity check. To do this, run the following:

Stop various daemons:

Code: Select all

service nagiosxi stop
service npcd stop
service ndo2db stop
service nagios stop
service postgresql stop
service httpd stop

Check a repair on some tables:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/repairmysql.sh nagios nagios_logentries
/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/repairmysql.sh nagios nagios_statehistory
/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/repairmysql.sh nagios nagios_notifications
/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/repairmysql.sh nagios nagios_contactnotificationmethods
/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/repairmysql.sh nagios nagios_contactnotifications
/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/repairmysql.sh nagios nagios_externalcommands
/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/repairmysql.sh nagios nagios_eventhandlers

Restart MySQL:

Code: Select all

service mysqld restart

Force a filesystem check on next boot:

Code: Select all

touch /forcefsck

Reboot the server:

Code: Select all

shutdown -r now

Once the system is up and stabilized, run the following and give me the full output (there will be a lot, and it will take a few minutes to run - you can put '> somefile' to redirect it to a file if your terminal doesn't support scrolling):

Code: Select all

c=0; while [ $c -lt 6 ]; do top -b -c | head -27; echo ""; sleep 72; c=$(($c+1)); done

Here is the output of the script:

The performance graphing engine (PNP) has a "features" in which it stops updated RRD files (e.g. performance graphs) if the system load exceeds a certain level. The default is a load of 10.0

You can change this by editing the following file:

Code: Select all

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

And changing the following value to a higher number:

Code: Select all

load_threshold = 10.0

Once you do that, restart PNP with this command:

Code: Select all

/etc/init.d/npcd restart
