How do I stop Nagios? 1

[mmrsupport]

We just had a power outage, and when our Linux server came back up, it is kicking out emails to our system regarding the status of a server on the network. How do I get it to stop? I looked at all the folders on the server but cannot find anything named Nagios.

Thanks for your help.

/etc/init.d/nagios stop
killall -9 nagios
ps -aux|awk '/nagios/{print $2}'|xargs kill -9


perl -e 'print $i=pack(c5,(40*2),sqrt(7600),(unpack(c,Q)-3+1+3+3-7),oct(104),10,oct(101));'

Can you explain what this does? I know nothing about this, so it would be appreciated. Thanks.

You asked how to stop Nagios... Well those are three different ways to stop it

perl -e 'print $i=pack(c5,(40*2),sqrt(7600),(unpack(c,Q)-3+1+3+3-7),oct(104),10,oct(101));'

Gotcha, thought you meant I had to do all three! Now I understand... did I mention I'm a newb?

No, but don't worry. Come on in, the water's fine...

The /etc/init.d/nagios stop is the "preferred" method, since it does a "graceful" shutdown of Nagios.

Anyone know how to permanently disable Nagios? Do I just remove the file from the init.d folder?

 

[gbaughma]

Yes. You can remove the startups in the init.d folders.
