Issue/Introduction

With Nagios having the possibility of being an extensive environment, we implemented throttling capabilities into the management pack. With this feature customers can cut down on the number of events, synchronous executions, number of relationships pulled on initial run and the number pulled on each execution after the initial for each collection. To perform the configurations, follow the steps below:

  1. Open an SSH session to the vROps remote collector performing the collection for Nagios.

  2. Navigate to $ALIVE_BASE/user/plugins/inbound/nagios_adapter3/conf

  3. Edit the file "nagios.properties".

  4. Add numerical values for any of the collection types you wish to throttle.

  5. Write and save the file when you have completed.

 

Keep in mind by default there is no throttling.  If the values are left blank no throttling will occur.
