Free disk space : Invalid drive

[Saletan, Jesse]

Thanks for the suggestion, Hendrik.

I stopped the nagios service and verified that there were no additional
processes running.  Then I restarted it and after the next check the
problem was still there.

Hi Jesse,

did you check for a second running nagios process?

Your mentioned "magic" to see different result on the website as on the
cli, occurs often if there is a second (or third) nagios process which
runs with older configurations...

Try to shutdown your nagios on the normal way: f.e.

/etc/init.d/nagios stop
wait 10 up to 20 seconds and do a
"ps aux | grep nagios"
Do you see more nagios procs? --> Kill them
After this start your nagios and wait for new status Informations.

Regards
Hendrik
