Nagios is running multiple daemons

[Rusch, Daniel]

I posted a similar message a week or so ago and didn't get any response.  On
my system the number of processes running that are owned by nagios varies
from a half dozen to over 100.  I assume that nagios is running
multithreaded and spawning of sub-processes.  I have noticed that nagios
will burry the box it is running on and then of course the number of
processes owned by nagios increases dramatically as they pile up.  Check to
see if nagios is over loading your system.  I logged uptime and ps -few |
grep nagios | wc -l every five minutes.

I posted my message to see what a "normal" number of processes should be,
but received no replies.

I don't know the reason, but I have seen multiple copies of Nagios 
running.

I haven't seen more than two, but it wasn't a parent/child 
relationship... there were actually two copies of Nagios running...

I thought that maybe it had something to do with the way that Nagios 
parallelizes checks, but maybe not...

Ethan?
