We made the configuration changes on few servers, we changed the number of attempts( Re-check the host every 1 minutes up to 15 times before generating an alert.). We had it upto 5 times before. But after making the changes, when checked the state history for the host, we found that it capturing 1 to 5 times and 1 to 15 times as well as shown in the screenshot. We need it to happen for 15 times and the 1 to 5 times checks should not happen for the host. I have attached the screenshots in the attachment

There is probably multiple Nagios processes running. To stop them, run the following as root.

Code: Select all

service nagios stop
killall -9 nagios
service nagios start
Let us know if this fixes the issue.
