Dear Folks,
I am writing to report what may be a problem with Nag 2.0b2 (embedded
Perl, pthread lib, FreeBSD 4.10).
Nagios runs no more than 10 days before dieing with a SEGV.
Like a former report of SEGVs ('coredumps in wobbly
networks'/Ericsson/24 Mar 2005) there _may_ be a pattern in the logged
messages before the SEGV.
Exitting from scheduled downtime appears to be a health hazard.
In the last case,
Sat Apr 02 17:05:42 SERVICE DOWNTIME ALERT:
foo:bar via the blurfl provider
infrastructure;STOPPED; Service has exited from a period of scheduled
downtime
Sat Apr 02 17:06:18 Auto-save of retention data completed successfully.
Sat Apr 02 18:07:33 Nagios 2.0b2 starting... (PID=97771)
tsitc> grep nagios /var/log/messages
Apr 2 17:07:52 tsitc /kernel: pid 3400 (nagios), uid 1000: exited on
signal 11
And the one before,
Tue Mar 29 06:20:58 SERVICE ALERT: nada;TEC CPU;WARNING;HARD;1;The
percentage of CPU in idle state is low. This indicates high CPU
overload. date: 03/29/2005 06:20:50 AM eventid: 1112041070

from a period of scheduled downtime

tsitc> grep nagios /var/log/messages
Mar 29 06:30:44 tsitc /kernel: pid 31467 (nagios), uid 1000: exited on
signal 11
Obviously it is easy to check whether scheduling downtime is causal; I
will give it a go and watch.
No core file.
Yours sincerely.
