I'm new to Linux and also to Nagios monitoring, so it may be something that I'm
missing.
I setup a second Nagios server so I can monitor my primary Nagios server,
basically if the primary Nagios stop monitoring I would like to know via the
secondary Nagios.
Issue is that I setup the check_nagios plugin and its giving me the status of
the Nagios process of the primary server, but when I shutoff the Nagios process
on the primary server (for testing), I am NOT getting any notification from the
secondary server that something is wrong with the primary, and its also keeps
telling me the process on the primary servers is OK.
Could you please assist ? thank you in advance.
See my host service definition below.
define service {
use generic-service
host_name ClearMon02
service_description Nagios
check_command check_nagios
notifications_enabled 1
}
My command definition is below
define command{
command_name check_nagios
command_line $USER1$/check_nagios -F
/usr/local/nagios/var/status.dat -e 1 -t 15 -C /usr/local/nagios/bin/nagios
}
