box as commands to change the current values.
Process State Information Chart
Process Commands Box
The Process Commands box lets you run commands to perform actions. These
actions are global, affecting all hosts and all
services. For example, if you
disable notifications here, no notifications will be sent for any hosts or
services.
Running As A Daemon? Whether or not the monitoring process (Nagios) is
running as a daemon. This is always Yes.
Last External Command
Check
Time of the latest execution of an external command –
see
External Command Interface , page 2-114. (When you
submit a command, a short delay can elapse before the
Control Center executes it.)
Last Log File Rotation Time and date of the latest event log file rotation. During
daily rotation the file is copied from the log directory,
/
var/log/nagios
, to the log archive directory, /var/log/
nagios/archives
.
The log file is of limited size; when full, the oldest log
entries are discarded to make room for new entries. The
file is rotated daily to provide a record of past entries.
