Either way, they are just going to show is it the lock file location is the same in both locations like it should be

Do you get any errors when you stop nagios?
After the stop is complete does this still show processes?

Hi,
No i donot find any issues while stopping Nagios and yes even after stopping Nagios after running the command ps -ef | grep Nagios .cfg some processes can stiil be seen as running .
please find the attachment .
Processes running when Nagios service is in on state is 16 and after stopping it is 8 when it should be 0 .sometimes processes running is more than 8 .

How many Hosts and Services is the server monitoring?
Can you post the nagios init script here so we can view it's settings?
Try this to stop all of the nagios processes.
Run this as root
Code: Select all
service nagios stop
killall -9 nagios
Check to see if all of the Nagios processes are stopped and then start it up.

Hi ,
Whenever I stop the Nagios process do I have to manually create the lock file ( nagios.lock , which is available in /usr/local/nagios/var )
because after executing the start command it shows no lock file found .
Thanks.

You said earlier that you have a cron job that is making changes and restarting nagios. Show us what that job is doing and running.
You should not have to create the lock file as the nagios init script should create it when you issue a nagios start.
Run the following commands and post the full output.
Code: Select all
service nagios stop
killall -9 nagios
ps -ef |grep nagios.cfg
service nagios start
service nagios status
tail -50 /usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log
ps -ef |grep nagios.cfg
