Re: xidpe
Looks like cron may not be running. Run the following:
service crond status
and if it is not, start it like so:
service crond start
Do the same for npcd:
service npcd status
and if not running:
service npcd start
service crond status
and if it is not, start it like so:
service crond start
Do the same for npcd:
service npcd status
and if not running:
service npcd start

They were both running...
Code: Select all
[root@az84mon11v]# service crond status
crond (pid 2676) is running...
[root@az84mon11v]# service npcd status
NPCD running (pid 6407).
Code: Select all

Thanks tmcdonald! Crons weren't running because the nagios user password expired. Our Hardware guys changed the nagios users password to expire.

Thanks everyone for all your input.!
