hosts showing up as down even though they are not being monitored

[Kaplan, Andrew H.]

Hi there --
 
I went through the steps you mentioned in your e-mail, and the problem continues
to persist. 
 
The preflight check did mention the clients in question did not have any
services associated 
with them. Aside from those warnings, the Nagios application did not have any
complaints or
problems starting up.

You still need to restart nagios. 
I'm assuming you're running it on *nix of some kind. These are linux commands
below:

Check your config first tho via:
/path/to/nagios/bindir/nagios -v /path/to/nagios.cfg

If that checks out without errors, then restart nagios

/path/to/nagios/[STARTUPSCRIPT|nagios] restart

	Hi there --  

	We are running Nagios 3.1.2 on one of our servers, and the following
anomaly is occurring: 

	Several of our clients have been taken offline, during which time they
were detected as being down. 
	I have gone through the motions of commenting out references to them in
the services file located in 
	the /usr/local/nagios/etc/objects directory. Even though the clients are
no longer being monitored, 
	they are still showing up as being down. 

	What other steps do I need to take in order to correct this problem?
Thanks.
