Nagios Zombie Procs?

The Nagios server itself is usually in the top ten alert producers, alerting on the Check Zombie Procs Service.

What are some starting points on troubleshooting all these zombie processes?

Do you have a number of zombie procs? These are simply processes which continue to run and stack up on each other. I'd start by checking to see if you have multiple copies of your processes running.
