Hi steve,

So, you have all the "services" defined statically on the Nagios server? 
That setup only works, I think, if you install your Nagios server at the 
very end of your deployment process and all the clients are up and ready 
before the server. If you do a parallel deployment, then there is a very 
good chance that Nagios will refuse to start at the first run. Cheers!!
