I have a Nagios installation that I am having an intermittant problem with.
On the host page, the "host commands", including such commands as "Disable checks of all services on this host" and "Disable notifications for all services on this host" are not working most of the time. I see the commands appear in the /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd file, but they do not take effect... most of the time. I saw the commands fail at first, then they worked two times back to back, then they stopped working again. As far as I know, the configuration changes were all made prior to me trying commands. I only configured the system once. The commands are not piling up, I usually only see one or two comamnds in the file, just now there was one from an hour ago, and another I added just now (to see if they were being erased), but none of the commands from this morning. So something is waking up and removing the commands, and twice it execured them. When they were executed, it was quickly. Can someone walk me through the steps taken to process this file? What runs the programs, what clears the file? This is a vmware ubuntu host, and I have the time being frequently corrected because of excessive time drift, so could that be screwing something up? I also run cacti, and I correct the time every 5 minutes, 1 minute before cacti polls, and the time adjustments are on the order of 0 to 3 seconds typically. Could that be contributing to the problem? I would have searched the forums first, but nagios.meulie.net is down at the moment... And googling for half an hour didn't help. Thanks in advance for any help!
