No services and pending host checks after apply config

Post by noweda »

Hello,

we updated to 5.7.1 recently. Since the update, we see a nearly empty nagios server after each apply config task. This condition holds on for about 10-15 minutes. After that everything is fine.

It looks like this:

Alle the host checks have the status "pending".

Before the update, the time between applying a config and the normal state was not more than 1 minute. What can we do, to speed this up again?

Best regards
Christoph

Hi Christoph,

The is a known issue affecting certain systems in 5.7.1, we are working on a maintenance release to correct this and it should be out soon.

In the meantime, if it's affecting your monitoring and are unable to wait until 5.7.2, I would recommend downgrading the backend database daemon to the previous versions ( see instructions below). Let me know if you have any questions. Benjamin

Code: Select all

systemctl stop nagios
cd /tmp
rm -rf /tmp/nagiosxi
wget https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagiosxi/5/xi-5.6.14.tar.gz
tar zxf xi-5.6.14.tar.gz
cd /tmp/nagiosxi/subcomponents/ndoutils
./install
systemctl enable ndo2db
Then edit your /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg and make sure this line is uncommented:

Code: Select all

broker_module=/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndomod.o config_file=/usr/local/nagios/etc/ndomod.cfg
Make sure this line is commented:

Code: Select all

#broker_module=/usr/local/nagios/bin/ndo.so /usr/local/nagios/etc/ndo.cfg
Then start the nagios service:

Code: Select all

systemctl start nagios

I have the same problem.
But the workaround does not resolves it.

Hi Benjamin,

thank your for your reply. I think, we will wait for the update, if it's not getting worse. Do you have a timeline for 5.7.2?

Best regards
Christoph
