Can someone explain what calls the backend cache setting caches? What data will not be live?

If you need more detail I can have a dev step in, but basically anything which would normally grab XML data. You can actually look under /usr/local/nagiosxi/tmp/backendcache and in the various subfolders if you want to see the actual data.

All kinds of data...hmm....

if that stuff is cached, does that effect the timing of notifications and such or is this just for the gui?

I'm about 90% sure this is just for the GUI, but I will check since that is something I did not think of during testing.

Cool....I may have to turn that on in my prod environment. 1300+ hosts and 31000+ services, it might come in handy. You can close this!

Let me know how it works out for you! Sounds like a perfect field-test.
