Core does not use any form of database on its own. If you are using ndoutils or nagiosql, most guides walk through using mysql, however it is possible to use postgres as well.

Nagios Core user is own database.

Any issue with core data or database i.e. data base crash, corrupt.

Kindly share any recover process.

As sreinhardt just mentioned:

Core does not use any form of database on its own.

Which database of yours is crashing? If you are just using Nagios Core, there should be no database created.

Asking only for knowge.

I am using Nagios core and want to know any issue with Nagios Core, collocted data and configuration.

If configured 1000 host with services any issue with Nagios Core ?

Should be no problem. Core just used the .cfg files you make, and saves information in status.dat file (which is just a text file).
