All,

i have configured a nagios server and facing issue while configuring the hosts on server for monitoring.
I have a local datacenter and a datacenter on azure. the port is open on azure for monitoring.

Nagios monitoring is configured on a local server. Using Nagios Core.
i have configured 2 hosts for monitoring.. one host resides in local datacenter while the other is on Azure
separate files are configured for monitoring each host in origin folder and files configured in nagios.cfg.
IP addresses for each host are configured in the host configuration files.
The issue is shown in the screenshot. same configuration parameters are shown for each host in the portal. unable to locate why is that..

need help.

Thanks in advance.

@resputant, The problem here is that system checks like swap, cpu usage, hard drive usage and ect., cannot be checked via http, or simply by pointing Nagios to the IP of the server. You'd need to install some kind of agent on the other server that will perform those checks locally and send results back to Nagios. What servers are you trying to monitor? Do they run on windows or linux?
Take a look at the NRPE agent here: https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... e/NRPE.pdf
And here's NSClient tutorial: https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... ndows.html
