Hello,
I have installed Nagios Log Server on CentOS 7. It seems to work so far but the User Nagios is logged in several times per second. After few days the user Nagios have Ten tousands of open Sessions.
I cant believe that this a normal behavior but i dont know what is wrong.
Have some one a idaea?
Regards

Can you share the output or file you're seeing this in?

These are due to the cron jobs in /etc/cron.d/nagioslogserver running each minute. You can have NLS drop these by adding a filter under Administration > Globl > Global Configuration > Filters. For example:
if [message] =~ 'Session Started.*' {
drop {}
}

that's pretty nifty it'll match without regex.
wouldn't it be this though?
Code: Select all
if [message] =~ 'Start* Session* *nagios**' {
drop {}
}

Hi,
sorry for my late answer.
You meaning that is ok that the user NAgios start 3 Session per minute? I send a screenshot from messages log. Here can you see that the user Nagios starts 3 session every minute but i dont see a message that this session is closed
Sure i can supress the messages from the log but i want to be sure that this behavior is fine and working as expected. Switch off this dumb oil warning lamp wont be helpful for the engine - you know
Regards

I don't believe there will necessarily be a "Closing session XYZ" message, and these messages are not specific to Nagios:
