 the adjust_timestamp_for_time_change() (in events.c) does not check the 
 timeperiod for the check, it just applies the time change to it, therefore 
 often moving it out of its timeperiod and causing it not to run, and to be 
 rescheduled for the next day.

 that is the next day, that 02:30:00 time is going outside the timeperiod if 
 there is a second lost in the next 24 hours too.

 There seems to be something unrequired here, the checks have been scheduled 
 for a time time x, the real time, time y, has been adjusted but we still want 
 the check to run at time x! Or to catch up as much as required running checks 
 scheduled in the new past!

 Anyway, apart from not having the Virtual time move around on me, has anyone 
 got any suggestions to stop the time rescheduling going outside the 
 timeperiods?

just don't use it. make a cron scheduling a downtime instead to suppress 
notifications.

the code with timeperiods is not covering 100% of the cases where it 
could be triggered and calculating a valid next check time. 
tracker.nagios.org holds an old issue on that while you can also read 
about that on the nagios-devel mailinglist archives.

[Nagios-users] Memory leak in Nagios 3.3.1

2011-08-23 Thread Andreas Ericsson
Hey all.

I just stumbled across a memory leak in Nagios 3.3.1 which causes about
500 bytes of data (the exact amount varies with contact names, notification
types, acknowledgement comments etc) to be lost on each notification
opportunity (that is, when a host or service triggers a notification that
actually gets sent to one or more contacts).

The leak isn't big and will take a long time to cripple a running system,
but you should be aware of it even so and take appropriate measures to
avoid any negative impact on your production systems. A weekly restart
should prevent leak buildups from reaching anywhere near critical levels.
An update to the latest Nagios from subversion should also do the trick.

More testing is in progress though, so cautious users (ie, the ones not
yet running 3.3.1 anyway) should probably give it a week or two until
upgrading.

Cheers

Error processing object config files!

I have a hunch the problem's in nagios-master-test.cfg.  Do you have a 
backup of that file from before the last time you modified it, or have a 
known-good nagios-master.cfg file you can compare it to? Or the 
example bone-stock nagios.cfg?

You're using a newer version of Nagios than I am, too.  A while back I 
realized I'd been migrating an ancient nagios.cfg for too long.  My old 
file contained deprecated settings and was completely missing new 
settings, so that might be something else to check for.
