Nagios Support Forum

Hello ,

if i restart nagios via init.d script it happens, that sometimes nagios
is not being killed. I am using an CVS Snapshot from mid of dec 2004 on
suse v9.0. (Killing is done by "kill " as far i can see.)
It is also possible, that this behavior happened at reload. We use an
automated script, to copy configurations to machines and restart/reload
nagios and i didnt figured out, when exactly this happens. It is hard to
debug, because it happens rarely.

If i take a look at running processes, everytime i detect one zombie
process called as ocsp/ochp via nagios. I suppose, nagios was being
killed, while making an ocsp/ochp check and the parent process of the
check exits without killing all childs. (The parent of the check-process
is the child of the process being killed by the kill command)

Ive not detected a bugfix, solving this problem on cvs. So i skipped checking
the newest version.

Is this a known issue? Or some other suggestions? Maybe for better
debugging?
