Stop Nagios before applying up2date?

[Andrew Davis]

Its not required, but after a reboot or reload of certain libraries, you 
could possibly see issues. In general, you should be fine. However our 
Nagios server is also our Cacti server and Cacti builds against the 
exact versions of snmp, so when this is upgraded as part of up2date or 
yum, then we have to recompile Cacti. Depending on what or what else 
you're doing, you could see similar issues... especially with mySQL, 
etc. Its sort of a crapshoot... but once you do it the first time, 
you'll know the answer for all subsequent times. :)
