done.

We request you to update on this ASAP.

We have rebooted the machine and nagios monitoring engine started now.

I apologize for your wait. Our support day begins at 9am US Central. It is currently ~9:13am US Central.

It sounds like your issue is resolved. Is that correct? If so, are we ready to close this thread?

Yes, please close it.

Feel free to open a new thread in the future!
