Nagios Support Forum

Sorry, I posted this before but lost the post...

A shutdown -ry 0 of my 4 servers resulted in the monitoring engine not starting on 3 servers. A check shows missing tables. Actually, the tables are missing after running repairmysql.sh. Whether they we missing before I'm not sure.

Running repairmysql.sh brought back 2 of the 3, but still, one is broken.

# echo 'check table nagios_servicestatu;' | mysql -t -pnagiosxi nagios
+----------------------------+-------+----------+--------------------------------------------------+
| Table | Op | Msg_type | Msg_text |
+----------------------------+-------+----------+--------------------------------------------------+
| nagios.nagios_servicestatu | check | Error | Table 'nagios.nagios_servicestatu' doesn't exist |
| nagios.nagios_servicestatu | check | status | Operation failed |
+----------------------------+-------+----------+--------------------------------------------------+

Normally, the following fixes things.

service mysqld stop
/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/repairmysql.sh nagios

So most important, how should this be fixed?
Less important is why can't the system be restarted with shutdown?

[root@cocsm2mlnag001 ~]# chkconfig --list | grep -e nagios -e mysql -e postgres
mysqld 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off
nagios 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off
nagiosxi 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off
postgresql 0:off 1:off 2:off 3:on 4:off 5:on 6:off

You have a typo... Instead of this:
run this:
Normally, you need to shut down the server by running:
You can repair the database by running:
or You can also run: If none of the above works, you can try: Hope this helps.

You're right. I fixed my DB checks and without the typo and the .MYI at the end of the name the mysql DB looks better. My mistake.

shutdown -h is halt
shutdown -r is restart

Neither should break the DB.

Attached is a file w/ the output of all suggestions in the previous post.

[root@cocsm2mlnag001 nagiosql]# service nagios status
nagios is not running
[root@cocsm2mlnag001 nagiosql]# service nagios start
Starting nagios: done.
[root@cocsm2mlnag001 nagiosql]# service nagios status
nagios is not running

The nagios service isn't running, but the syslog and nagios.log don't seem to have anything suggesting why...

I removed the configuration added to disable IPv6 and restarted. The system is running now but npcd wasn't. It starts manually though.
I manually stopped mysqld and then restarted the servers and everything came back normally.
You may just want to remove this thread...
Thanks!
