Nagios forces active checks to be run when used in conjuction with freshness checking, even when active checks for that service are disabled. The docs describe it pretty well at http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/2_0/distributed.html under the "Freshness Checking" section. You have to read it c

2008-08-15 Thread Jonathan Call
Correct me if I'm wrong: In order to run a distributed system, the central server should have active service checks disabled. But freshness checking executes the check command when it doesn't receive a passive response in a timely manner. This means the freshness check never runs. How do you get a

I have used Nagvis extensively in our environment and it does a good job of visualizing nagios status data. I highly recommend it. To make it look really nice, however, you will need to create your own icon sets, which can take some time. The included icon sets work, but I found that they didn't m
