Slightly off topic, but how best to write nagios check that checks for this specific behavior (multiple instances of nagios running) ?

Try killing off all Nagios processes, and then starting it fresh again to see if that resolves the issue. /etc/init.d/nagios stop killall -9 nagios /etc/init.d/nagios start On 1/2/2013 4:38 AM, Srikanth Gumma wrote: Hi, I need some help regarding nagios. We have around 500 Linux servers for which we are doing a ping and ssh monitoring only. The entire functionality is based on remote and no NRPE service is deployed. However I see very inconsistency on nagios functionality. sometimes I don't see any updates on the nagios console for more than one week. Our Nagios is installed on CentOS6.2 OS and it's the latest version Nagios Core 3.4.3. and I could only see some messages like below in /var/log/messages 'SSH' on host 'xyz' looks like it was orphaned (results never came back). I'm scheduling an immediate check of the service... any help is highly appreciated.
