Removed Host still has Service Status - Critical
Posted: Fri Jan 17, 2014 5:44 pm
Hey Guys,
Great product (Nagios XI), I have been working on a Production Nagios Xi instance for a number of months and have recently built a second (back-up) Instance and have encountered a strange situation I cannot correct.
Nagios XI 2012R2.7
Running on AWS-EC2 (Nagios Image)
CentOS 6.2? (Can find out if it's critical)
No idea if it's 32/64bit (Again can find out if it's critical)
So I added a Host (lets call it Host03) and then realised that was incorrect and I wasn't happy with it, so I removed all the services and then removed the Host (through CCM).
Once Host03 and all it's services but a Critical Service Status was still in Views - I thought nothing of it (as it will just update in a few minutes) and went to bed, woke up - had like 8 email notifications around this Service being at Critical.
I have tried removing the Service using the Configure Tab under Host Status Detail (in Views) but it errors saying:
"Could not find a unique id for this host
Host cannot be deleted using this method"
Of course because I have already deleted the actually Service (and the UID is gone with it).
So my question is, once a Service moves to the 'Critical' Service Status, and you remove that Service using CCM. Is there anyway to clear it?
I haven't tried re-adding the Host, then removing the Critical Service Status under the Configure Tab in Views. Might try that now, but just interested in if this is a bug or do I need to edit a conf to correct it etc.
Thanks in Advnace and look forward to your feedback, Alex.
