Obviously before you start deleting anything, take a backup!

If you want to delete all the history from Nagios, I guess you should
delete the files under /usr/local/nagios/var/archives/ and
/usr/local/nagios/var/nagios.log.  You might also want to delete
/usr/local/nagios/var/objects.cache and retention.dat too.

If you want to restore the Nagios configuration to what you get when
you install from scratch, I would extract the nagios tarball then use
the files from the directory nagios-3.2.3/sample-config/ to set up a
minimum system.

To delete all the graphs created by pnp4nagios, remove all the files
and directories under /usr/local/pnp4nagios/var/perfdata/  (or if you
have an older version of pnp, you will maybe find these under
/usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/).

Some of these actions could break your nagios system if you are not
sure what the files do or how to re-create them.  If you are not
experienced with Nagios, it might be best to build a new system rather
than break an existing one.

Good luck,

Jim
