Nagios Reload/Restart

[sgrynd]

What is the proper way to place the cfg files and reload/restart nagios?

I am setting to the following:
Server - Localhost
Generate Files - Yes
Relations - Dependencies Management
Include Comments - No
Export in XML too - No
Export Configuration Files (Traps SNMP) - No
Nagios Debug - Yes
Optimization - No
Move Export Files - Yes
Restart Nagios - Yes
Reload - yes


Sometimes I try restart instead of reload.

After it runs through with out errors, my services/host changes aren't there. If I do a force refresh of the page they still don't show, but after trying the above serveral times in a row the changes show up. Is there a delay and I am just impatient?

If I stop the nagios process and restart it at the CLI it seems to happen immediately.

Also, if I tell a service to reschedule the next check or force the next check it still seems to take to when ever the original next check was schedule to happen. If I monitor the nagios.cmd file the entries are getting put in there.

Thanks for the help!

Please disregard the 1st part of my question about reloading/restarting nagios. I am simply either too fast or my server is to slow, probably the later, it is working fine.

However I am curious about the service force check in the 2nd part of my post.

Thanks for the help.

I have a similar trouble.. when i ask to centreon restart nagios, nothing happens, no error has detectec by "nagios -v" only a few warnings, nothing appears in secure log... I´m using nagios 2.0 and Centreon 1.4.1.. Some tip?

Hi

I had the same problem, I wasn't able to restart nagios2 with centreon web interface.
I tried many things..

visudo was ok
(I was able to restart in command line)

Finally I checked options/nagios in centreon,
I re entered something else in InitScript
Then I re-entered /etc/init.d/nagios2
And it worked !

Hope That Helps !

Thanks
