[Nagios-devel] nagios.cmd concurrency and cronological timestamps

Post by Guest »

Hi,

Nagios 2.5, SuSE9.3.
Syslog-ng 1.6.8.

I am configuring some passive checks to be transported by syslog-ng. But
keeping nsca daemon listening for other distributed agents check
results. Syslog-ng is only transporting results that are generated by
the monitored servers itself.

So i've configured syslog-ng to write directly to nagios.cmd. Everything
working fine, but as we are receiving check results from diferent
distributed nagios servers, I wonder if whether or not msgs written at
nagios.cmd has to be cronological. I mean, if some distributed server
lost the synchronization with ntp, and the epoch time of one msg gets
written to the nagios pipe with a timestamp lower than the one before
that, will Nagios drop the delayed check result?=20

Thanks for any comments on this matter.

Marcel
