Nagios isn't an automation tool, it's a monitoring tool. It also doesn't do

If the service writes an event to the Windows event log each time
We're looking at a service that has problems from time-to-time, and it
gets auto-restarted when needed (Windows). What I've been looking for
is a way to say that it needs 3 restarts ir order to go critical, but
only within a 1 hour time frame. Anyone come up with a way to do time
frames like
I want to know if a service restarts 3 times in one hour.
Right now I can only find a way to do 3 times, ever, using max_check_attempts.
Better ?

Thanks.

reboot
Couple questions
1) Why do you have to reboot your monitoring server weekly?
2) How is the reboot being done?
Reason I ask 2) is because the standard rc script will remove the
lockfile when nagios is told to stop. So if you are having this problem
is sounds like you are not doing a clean
Also you probably want to make sure you run the command as the nagios
user, or whatever the user is that the service runs as, to make sure you
are getting the right environment and permissions.

I also modified one of the other plugins to do a user-space, check_ps.pl I
think was it, so I added a -u user option that basically does a ps aux for
all that user and then totals all the results. I can probably get a copy if
you wanted it. Mainly because I don't use snmp for process checks
I noticed something odd the other day while stressing my servers. I noticed
that when I overload it with too many hosts/checks, that I start getting active
check failures with the standard 127 code. But, if I slowly reduce the number
of hosts/checks, I’ll get to a point where it starts

Always something fun in nagiosland :)

You could do it the other way, and in the host definition assign it to a
hostgroup, using the hostgroups directive, and give it a
comma-separated list of groups? We did it that way so basically the
host definition file is all self-contained.

You might want to check:
netstat -nap |grep 5667
That will show you what's actually listening on that port, if anything.
That's usually oen big reason xinetd couldn't start up. Like maybe you
have an RC script starting up NSCA outside of xinetd.

In top, does it show the same load values? The status of your memory
shouldn't cause the nagios plugin to report high cpu. What does the
uptime command say? Try running the check_load script by hand on that
host and verify it returns the same results.

I did some testing today with epn on and off and it didn't seem to make
any difference in our latency times. Not overly scientific though, but
looked about the same running few hours each way.

Not sure how those other scripts are doing it, if using an ls maybe? As
a test, can you do:
time find path -type f |wc -l
See how long it takes for that?

Sorry for confusion on that..I added 9 checks to *each* host, and
there's about 700 hosts. No, it's all the nagios daemon itself (nagios
-uxd). It feels like if I add that many more checks that it has a hard
time doing the checks and processing the results since if I either move
