NAME

       Nagios - network/systems status monitoring daemon

SYNOPSIS

       nagios [-h] [-v] [-s] [-d] <main_config_file>

DESCRIPTION

       nagios  is a daemon program that monitors the status of various network accessible systems, devices, and more. For more information, please
       consult the online documentation available at http://www.nagios.org, or on your nagios server's web page.

OPTIONS

       main_config_file
              The main configuration file.  On openSUSE systems this defaults to /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg

       -h     A helpful usage message

       -v     Reads all data in the configuration files and performs a basic verification/sanity check.  Always make sure you verify  your  config
              data before (re)starting Nagios. You can also use the Nagios init script to verify your configuration - try: rcnagios check_verbose

       -s     Shows projected/recommended check scheduling information based on the current data in the configuration files.

       -d     Starts Nagios in daemon mode (instead of as a foreground process).

FILES

       /etc/nagios
              Default configuration directory for nagios
