http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/configmain.html#use_retained_sche duling_info I don't use it but it appears that you must have host/service retention enabled as well, including adding the retain_status_information and retain_nonstatus_information to your host/service definitions or templates. Using '/etc/init.d/nagios reload' or sending a HUP signal to the master nagios daemon will cause it to reload the config w/o restarting. With the settings above enabled then it should retain the scheduling queue and pre-reload status information for hosts and services. Personally, we just run a config verification (nagios -v) when adding hosts and restart each night to have the changes enabled. -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
