Nagios Support Forum

Hi all.

I have installed nagios 4.4.3 on centos 7 from yum.

I would like to test NERD functionality but it seems it does not start correctly. As you can see from log, nerd hostchecks and servicechecks are not registered and not available to be queried.

Why NERD is not started ? What I need to check ?

Thanks for helping !!

Giovanni

nerd is disabled by default.

You need to compile from source and enable with --enable-nerd during ./configure

Source install instructions can be found here

Thanks for answer ... so it is impossible to enable NERD within a yum package ?

Thanks a lot
