Greetings, I tried updating my (perfectly working, mind you) ndoutils from 1.4b7 to 1.4b9 over the weekend and was primarily rewarded with segfaults and other grief which has resisted investigation and fixes. The errors were introduced in 1.4b8 and persist into 1.4b9. I'm running on

[Nagios-users] checks per host

2010-07-12 Thread Joel Brooks
hey gang, I'm trying to get a sense of what's normal for the number of checks per host. I'm pushing nagios to a number of servers and the list of things I want to monitor keeps growing. For some servers, I've got 30 checks - some 50. what is normal out there? is there a practical limit?

I'm trying to get a sense of what's normal for the number of checks per host. If you had a data set of information on Nagios installations you may find an average service checks/hosts ratio but I don't really understand the purpose. People are going to want to monitor different things and at

As pointed out, normal depends on your environment. Some sites only check a handful of things per host; some check more. The bigger issue is if your server can handle the number of checks and in a timely fashion. Look at nagios parameters Max_service_check_spread, max_host_check_spread as well as

Thanks guys. I'm not so worried about the monitoring server. It has lots of head room, and/but I will continue to monitor that. I was mainly interested to know about people's experiences using nagios with a lot of checks per host in terms of usability (web interface), configuration, etc. i.e.

[Nagios-users] Notification from past scheduled downtime events
