Nagios Support Forum

Dear Board Users and Nagios Support,

i am facing a problem regarding the maintenance for an old webbased Version of Nagios (Version 1.2) due to job change. In that Webenvironment are several Hosts defined which have to be removed out of that monitoring environment. I do see how to shut off messages and monitoring the dedicated host.

But i dont find a way to remove them from monitoring generally.

Is there problably a way to help me out of that nasty little issue?

many thanks in advance from germany

@MaHo_DE, With Nagios Core you'd need to manually edit the config files on your Nagios Server.
1. Please SSH to your Nagios Server using PuTTY or similar software.
2. cd /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/
3. ls to see if your hosts are defined in separate cfg files.
4. If you see them, remove the corresponding cfg files.
Restart nagios with: If you're having trouble you can upload /usr/local/nagios/etc/ folder here or pm it to me, and I will make necessary changes for you. If the file size is too big you can upload it to google drive or similar cloud service and share a link.

Hello and thanks for your reply, ill check the adviced procedure and see if i can manage it myself, otherwise ill come back to you for another help.

Thanks in advance..

@MaHo_DE, Sure, not a problem.
