Nagios Support Forum

We have noticed that Nagios XI takes really long to apply changes. Our environment has two workers using gearmon and two masters so please help rectify this.

This can happen quite often in setups that utilize gearman because the nagios service tries to wait for the checks to return from the gearman process which can take over a minute, and that is added to the normal apply configuration time.

If your Apply Configuration is taking longer than that, please reply with your Nagios XI version, and a copy of your /etc/init.d/nagios file

Nagios version: Nagios XI 5.4.13

how long does the apply configuration normally take to complete?

What is the output of the following

Here you go:

[root@nagmonm102 ~]# ps -ef | grep nagios.cfg
root 16760 16253 0 00:11 pts/0 00:00:00 grep --color=auto nagios.cfg
nagios 25586 1 0 Jun21 ? 00:07:52 /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -d /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg
nagios 25694 25586 0 Jun21 ? 00:00:04 /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios -d /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg

Also these nagios servers take real long to ssh onto maybe upto 2 minutes to provide a password prompt.

That sounds like a problem of an overloaded system.

Can you send me your system profile.zip from Admin -> System Profile

Have attached as asked.

The profile looks ok, I never got an answer to the above question

Takes close to 3 minutes when applying some configuration.

Can you run the following and post the output also note if it stays on a specific command for a long period of time

thanks
