Hi @fsodah,

You can run the command

Code: Select all

service nagios stop
and/or

Code: Select all

systemctl stop nagios
depending on your system. That will stop the monitoring engine. Start it up again with

Code: Select all

service nagios start
/

Code: Select all

systemctl start nagios
Let us know if you have any more questions!

Thank you!
