Subject: [Nagios-users] incredible disappearing host<BR>
<BR>
Greetings all.<BR>
I am running Nagios 1.0, RH Linux 7.3, Compaq DL360 1.2GHz<BR>
<BR>
Nagios has been working fine for quite a long while. Recently we added about 30 additional servers with two services each to monitor. There is a total of 62 hosts and 125 services being monitored. In addition, I am also running MRTG/RRDTool on the same machine and it's gathering data from something like 800-1000 interfaces. The systems is getting fairly busy.<BR>
<BR>
What happens is this. I added a new server and 3 services to be monitored. When I start Nagios, the new server will sometimes not appear on the hosts or services screen. Doing a view config > hosts it's definately there and is configured the same as many other servers. Restarting Nagios or refreshing the browser will sometimes bring it back but it will eventually disappear again. This happens from multiple browsers or clients. Has anyone seen anything like this before?<BR>
Weird.<BR>
<BR>
Thanks for the help.<BR>
