Chapter 2: configure the relationship between nagios and configuration files

2.1 Main configuration file options

The main configuration file of Nagios is/usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios. cfg.

This article briefly describes the important variables in the main configuration file.

 

2.1.1 object configuration file

Format: pai_file = Example:

Export _file =/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/contacts. cfg

Export _file =/usr/local/nagios/etc/objects/commands. cfg

For example, add a new host to configure linuxtone. cfg.

Export _file =/usr/local/nagios/etc/linuxtone. cfg

 

2.1.2 nagios users and groups

Nagios_user = nagios

Nagios_group = nagios

 

2.1.3 Notification options

Enable_configurications = 1

This option determines whether Nagios sends a notification during initialization or restart. If this option is not enabled, Nagios will not send notifications to any host or service. Note: If the status persistence option is enabled, Nagios ignores this setting during startup and restart and uses the most recent setting of this option (the status persistence file has been saved) unless you cancel the use_retained_program_state option. If you want to change this option when the enable state is saved (and use_retained_program_state), you must modify it through an appropriate external command or through a Web interface. Options can be:

0 = disable notification

1 = open notification (default)

This document does not list them one by one. For details, see:
