This is the answer I receive when I kill the process....
[local]# killall -9 nagios
nagios: no process killed
[local]# kill -9 24231
[local]# ps -ef | grep nagios
nagios 24231 4029 0 10:29 ? 00:00:00 /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd -k start
nagios 24293 4029 0 10:29 ? 00:00:00 /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd -k start
nagios 24333 4029 0 10:29 ? 00:00:00 /usr/local/apache2/bin/httpd -k start

And when you restarted Nagios? Are the messages still coming in or have they stopped..?

Have you integrated Mod Gearman / DNX into your Nagios environment? Please run the following and report back with the output:

Code: Select all

df -h

df -i

Code: Select all

ll /tmp
I'd also run through this guide:

Have you ran through the documentation I linked? If so what steps did you take in it? What changes were made?
