Service Group Summary Changing Numbers

[Aidan Anderson]

Hi Elijah,

This sounds similar to a problem that I had, refreshing the browser was 
giving me different results.  It turned out that the problem was to do 
with 2 Nagios processes running.  When I was refreshing the browser, it 
was randomly picking one of the processes and reporting back the state 
of that particular instance hence the different results on each 
refresh.  To rectify, I stopped Nagios and manually removed the 
remaining process and then started Nagios again.  I caused the problem 
during a Nagios upgrade, I didn't stop Nagios before starting the 
upgrade so it ended up being started twice.

Regards,
Aidan
