Nagios Support Forum

Hi

The system was set up by my predecessor who left zero documentation on how they set it up, and we have recently retired some redundant servers which now means we have lots of Critical alerts for the three servers and the multiple services on them. I have been asked to remove these server from nagios, i have never used nagios before so i have browsed through the knowledge base documentation to try a get a understanding of how it works and i believe i have found the file where all the hosts and services are listed (windows.cfg) but cannot seem to be able remove them from the list. Am i missing something?

Any help would be appreciated

Thank you

You do need to verify the configuration and restart the nagios service after making config changes for them to take affect.
