Change of hostgroups.cfg without restarting nagios
Posted: Thu Jun 28, 2018 8:11 pm
If I changed the cfg files in objects/ (e.g. hostgroups.cfg), is there a way to make nagios pick up the
config changes without restarting the nagios service?
The server is running RHEL7.
Using the unit file below.
What should the ExecReload command be like? This doesn't work
ExecReload=/usr/bin/kill -HUP $MAINPID
Thanks!
