***UPDATE** Host Checks are fine. From what you probably can already tell from below, it's just related to service checks only.

My Nagios instance sits on a dedicated ESX host. They brought down the Nagios XI test vm (r2.0) and patched the ESX Host. Well when it came back up I am getting this all over the place.

SQL: SQL Error [ndoutils] : Table './nagios/nagios_servicestatus' is marked as crashed and should be repaired SQL: SQL Error [ndoutils] : Table './nagios/nagios_servicestatus' is marked as crashed and should be repaired SQL: SQL Error [ndoutils] : Table './nagios/nagios_servicestatus' is marked as crashed and should be repaired SQL: SQL Error [ndoutils] : Table './nagios/nagios_servicestatus' is marked as crashed and should be repaired SQL: SQL Error [ndoutils] : Table './nagios/nagios_servicestatus' is marked as crashed and should be repaired SQL: SQL Error [ndoutils] : Table './nagios/nagios_servicestatus' is marked as crashed and should be repaired SQL: SQL Error [ndoutils] : Table './nagios/nagios_servicestatus' is marked as crashed and should be repaired

I tried to run the repair_database.sh as the nagios user but got this error:

[nagios@nagiast01 scripts]$ ./repair_databases.sh

This did not correct anything.

HELP!

Unfortunately not, but you were doing the correct steps. Only difference is that, that script should be run as root. My guess would be that they used vmware acpi shutdown, which does not play nice with mysql.

Problem fixed!

They gave me sudo permissions to stop mysqld and run all the scripts as root in /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts.

Question though.

For future situations like this, if I shutdown the mysqld server and nagios will it then be ok for them to stop the VM via the VMWARE acpi and bring it back up again the same way?

Ideally you should be doing a "shutdown -h now" or "reboot" command, but if you cannot I would do this first:

Code: Select all

service httpd stop
service nagios stop
service npcd stop
service mysqld stop
service postgresql stop

That should shut down everything in the right order.
