Cleaning up the database

[tribbink]

Hi All,

I want to clear up all my historical data in the NagiosXI 2012R1.0 database, except Hosts, Services, Hostgroups an Servicegroups etc.
Is there a way to delete them, so i start witch all my hosts and services, and start over collecting data.

Best Regards,
Ton

Which type of historical data?

THESE ARE NOT REVERSIBLE

Delete Performance data

Code: Select all

rm -rf /usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/*

Other historical data can be remove by lowering the times in Admin -> Performance Settings -> Database tab

Finally, historical availabity and logs can be removed by

Code: Select all

rm -f  /usr/local/nagios/var/archives/*
