Yes it does. It gets added to chkconfig to start at runlevels 3 and 5:

You can verify with this:

Code: Select all

[root@DEV59 ~]$ chkconfig --list | grep nagios
nagios          0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on    4:off   5:on    6:off
nagiosxi        0:off   1:off   2:off   3:on    4:off   5:on    6:off

[root@credit04 ~]# chkconfig --list | grep nagios

when i run chkconfig it did not return me any values, So it means nagios would not start right ?

How do i make the process automated when server is rebooted

Are you running this on your Nagios XI server, or are we talking about an agent (like NRPE) running on a particular server?

It should start at boot also, to check that run

Code: Select all

chkconfig --list | grep xinetd

Run in terminal:

Code: Select all

chkconfig --level 35 nagios on
chkconfig --level 35 xinetd on
Hope this helps.
