Service Detail problem

#1

I seem to be having an intermittent issue with Nagios, and I am not sure where it is coming from. I currently have Nagios monitoring 24 hosts, and 77 services. Sporadically, under the Service Status totals, the ‘All Types’ column will indicate that there are ony 55 services, but if I refresh the page, it will show all 77. Something else I noticed while writing this post, sometimes when I go into the Host Detail section, there are several hosts that indicate they are in ‘Pending’ status, but if I refresh the page, they show they are up. I am using Nagios v2.03b. Can anyone help me solve this?

Thanks in advance!

you possibly have two instances of nagios running.
stop nagios, wait a minute, ps -ef | grep nagios and kill the remaining processes then restart nagios and check if everything is ok :slight_smile:

I think you are right - there were two instances running, and I never thought to check that. I’ll keep an eye on it, but at least for the moment it appears to be behaving itself.

Thank you very much!!!
