Nagios Web Interface does not notify when nagios service is killed!
 

Hi,

I am working as UNIX administrator in Data Centre having more than few hundred servers(RHEL 5.5/6). I have installed nagios (core) 3.3.1 and Nagios Plugins 1.4.15 and NRPE (Nagios Remote Plugin Executor) 2.12 to monitor the all servers in data centre mentioned above.

When nagios process is killed manually, the nagios web interface does not automatically notify about the nagios process been killed (unless the service is explicitly stopped).

This gives impression to support team looking at the web interface that everything is working fine when nagios process itself is killed/dead. I am new to nagios/RHEL, can you please give me some pointers to solve this issue.

Thanks a ton,
LA

>> Why do you kill the process....I believe it doesn't get killed by itself, until you stop the Nagios Process..And when the process is killed / stopped, the web browser dosent show any, but an error message.


>> What is the check_interval you gave in the Template, the web page should refresh itself @ time you mention in check_interval
