When we have lot of load on the servers , Nagios receives check nrpe time out after 50 seconds. After 3 times , this service is put on critical status .Normally , when a check is on CRITICAL , Nagios launchs a scripts to restart the system and we have a lot of restart on each servers due to the timeout of checknrpe. How can I avoid this kind of problem.I have increased the timer od NRPE from 30 seconds to 50 seconds but without succes. Can we configure nagios to have only warning state for a checknrpe timeout Thanks for your support Mohamed </BODY> </HTML>
