| From the plugin page: "This plugin checks the status of the Nagios process on the
local machine"
If you want to check a remote machine, I'm guessing you will have to run this
via ssh, nrpe, or
some such mechanism.|

I’m new to Linux and also to Nagios monitoring, so it may be something
that I’m missing.
I setup a second Nagios server so I can monitor my primary Nagios
server, basically if the primary Nagios stop monitoring I would like
to know via the secondary Nagios.
Issue is that I setup the check_nagios plugin and its giving me the
status of the Nagios process of the primary server, but when I shutoff
the Nagios process on the primary server (for testing), I am NOT
getting any notification from the secondary server that something is
wrong with the primary, and its also keeps telling me the process on
the primary servers is OK.
Could you please assist ? thank you in advance.
See my host service definition below.
define service {
use generic-service
host_name ClearMon02
service_description Nagios
check_command check_nagios
notifications_enabled 1
}
My command definition is below
define command{
command_name check_nagios
command_line $USER1$/check_nagios -F
/usr/local/nagios/var/status.dat -e 1 -t 15 -C
/usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios
}
