Nagios Support Forum

Hello,

On one of our server notification history is blank for September and on October some data is missing. Kindly help to fix the issue.

Does it show for dates prior to September? If you try to pull just a single September day's worth of notifications, does it work?

Try repairing the database per https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... tabase.pdf.

Also optimize the php.ini per https://support.nagios.com/kb/article/n ... e-611.html.

If the above doesn't help, run this command from the XI machine to see if there is anything in the database for the month of September:
The above assumes the default database is used. If you've offloaded the database and/or changed the credentials you'll need to modify this slightly. For example:
Do you have any backups (either Nagios or mysql) under /store/backups/? If the data is somehow missing from the database, we may be able to restore it from the backups in these directories.

Hello,

I can see only less than 10 items after running these command, So there is no any data for the september right, IS there any way to know how the data is purged for September, To prevent these happening in future.

The command shows there is data for October but to check for September run:
In either case of data being returned or not with the above command, I would look in the mysql logs to see if there were any problems with the database. The log location is usually /var/log/mysqld.log or /var/log/mariadb/mariadb.log.

Hello,

I have checked with the command it shows nothing and I will send the log file link to download in private chat.

The log doesn't go far enough back, but it's huge because it looks like there is some debugging enabled. What does /etc/my.cnf look like. Here are the contents from a default install:
If you haven't already, I'd recommend setting up a XI machine with the purpose of just monitoring the production XI machine - https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... Server.pdf. This can help you be aware of problems that the production machine runs into.
