Hi all!
After I’ve modified hosts/services/etc with NagiosQL, do I have to restart Nagios to make them become active?
never tried it… but if after adding something you don’t see the new service/host I’d say it needs a restart… as when you change the services by hand through vi…

So in general Nagios always needs a restart after configs have been updated?
Is there any way to tell Nagios (2.:evil:
if there is one i never found it… 
possibly a kill -HUP… but i haven’t tried…
Luca
That would work, but still ‘restart’ the Nagios process. From the Gentoo init-script:
reload()
{
checkconfig || return 1
ebegin "Reloading configuration"
killall -HUP nagios &>/dev/null
eend $?
}
