IBM i Monitoring Gaps on Nagios XI host

Hi support

I need assistance with Nagios XI , we have installed the IBM i support plugin but it seems that the service isnt monitoring 24/7 as it suppose to.

We setup nagiosXI on a clean redhat install and then uploaded the IBM i nagios plugin wizard. Once started it does monitor for a while but then goes "dead" sort of as per the attached images.

We can confirm that the hosts are available 24/7, but some how there are gaps.

Also , we can confirm that all "services" is operational.
Nagios Host Status
Nagios Host Status
see the attachment on the red block that is missing:
Host Block Red.
Host Block Red.
Any help related to logs to check why it intermittently skips will be greatly appreciated. Also , if we can request a configuration check that Nagios is setup correctly on its own host, that will be helpful.

Hi,

What version of Nagios XI are you using? Would you be able to share your profile? If security is a concern, you can send me a PM.

Also, just so you know, if you're on a trial, you have full access to 30 days of customer support.

https://support.nagios.com/get-trial-support/

Otherwise, feel free to post to the community forum as well.

Hi Benjamin,

Sorry I dont know how to share the profile, please guide me in that area.

We are using the Nagios XI version that we downloaded about a month ago. I think its 5.7.

Also , if you dont mind, how does one use the trial customer support benefit ?

Hi Benjamin,

I managed to be able to open a support ticket.

Thank you for the assistance though.

@AlvinAdano, Can you open a new forum thread for this question? I'm going to lock this thread since it's been moved over to a support ticket.

Thanks,
Benjamin
