[Nagiosplug-devel] max clients on nagios host

[Erik Welch]

On one of our nagios servers that deals with a compute farm, it checks almost 40K services across over 5000 hosts.

The issue you are describing sounds a lot like you have multiple instances of nagios running.  I've seen this with using the 'restart' option to the init script.  I would recommend either a reload, or a full 'stop' and then manual kill of any running daemons before the start.

Hello,

I have added 210 clients for a nagios host to monitor.... I am wondering what the maximum for a host to monitor. I am experience that if I added more hosts; I am experience strange behavior in that I have to refresh to see the new clients services, and if I refresh again... the services disappear...the clients doesn't appear as client unless I search for it... etc....
