We are receiving host notifications even after deleting hosts configuration.

Thanks

Did you apply configuration after deleting the host from the Core Config Manager?

Yes, multiple times.

Got it, let's try a delete / write / verify. Navigate to Configure -> Core Config Manager -> Under 'Tools' look for 'Write Config Files' -> Then run 'Delete all ....', followed by 'Write Configs ....', and finally 'Verify Configuration'. Once this has completed, apply configuration and the issue should be resolved.

If it's not, please post the full output of ps -aef

Do we not loose any config by doing a delete ?. A little worried.

I get the following error on verify in red color. but at the end of the report it says everything looks ok. Contradicting.


Error: Could not find a service matching host name 'WMS Gateway' and description 'Memory Usage' (config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/servicegroups.cfg', starting on line 56)

Things look okay - No serious problems were detected during the pre-flight check

This only deletes your configuration files, everything is still stored in SQL which is where they will rewrite from. You will not lose any data.

Regarding this - Was this during a verify, or an apply configuration? If you apply configuration, is it successful?
