Scheduling queue falling behind.

Hey folks this is Trevor here,

   While i used to have a lot of nagios deployments for clients i did have
these issues more than one. I had about 25-30 servers and all the checks on
these servers would be way behind the actual scheduled time. It would wary
from a few mins to hours at length.

    Never got around to solving the prob. Thought i had a bad config but i
too had the same settings like Robert here. Was baffled as to why was nagios
delaying the checks. The box wasnt topping out and the network wasnt an
issue either. I have found such issues when running nagios with a huge
number of metrics being monitored. 400-500 in total.

   Am not sure if this helps..but this is precisely what i too went through.

Thanks and Regards
Trevor

your hands. I am at work, though you do not understand my ways. I am not
strange visions. I am not mysteries.
Only in absolute stillness, beyond self, can you know me as I am, and then
but as a feeling and a faith. Yet I am here. Yet I hear. Yet I answer. -anon
