Yes, it does this by default. Historical data is kept in the archive directory, typically /usr/local/nagios/var/archives. > 2.) Now,I'm use flat file to keep the data.Can I get the historical data? Yes. Nagios only uses flat files for data. No special action is necessary and the web interface is used to display that data or you can parse the files and use the data on your own. > 3.) Can Nagios work with MySQL? How? Not directly but there are addons available at http://exchange.nagios.org to tie nagios to MySQL for both configuration (i.e. front ends that store their data in MySQL, then generate the flat file with configuration data that nagios requires) and data retention for parsing/presentation by other third party apps (i.e. merlin or other alternative front end.) -- Marc ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Centralized Desktop Delivery: Dell and VMware Reference Architecture Simplifying enterprise desktop deployment and management using Dell EqualLogic storage and VMware View: A highly scalable, end-to-end client virtualization framework.
