Problems Importing Nagios Comments.dat

So i upgraded from Nagios version 2.6 to the latest version of nagios currently available.

but the problem is, i can't get the comments that were on my old version of nagios to show up on my new version of nagios.

has anyone else run into this issue?

the comments are extremely important.

thank you

Nagios::StatusLog(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				    Nagios::StatusLog(3pm)

NAME
Nagios::StatusLog, Nagios::(Service|Host|Program)::Status - Perl objects to represent the Nagios status file DESCRIPTION
Reads the Nagios status log and returns ::Status objects that can be used to get status information about a host. For Nagios version 2.x logs, pass in the Version => 2.0 parameter to new(). And similarly, pass in the Version => 3.0 parameter to new() for Nagios version 3.x logs. my $log = Nagios::StatusLog->new( Filename => "/var/opt/nagios/status.log", Version => 1.0 ); $localhost = $log->host( "localhost" ); print "status of localhost is now ",$localhost->status()," "; $log->update(); print "status of localhost is now ",$localhost->status()," "; # for Nagios v2.0 my $log = Nagios::StatusLog->new( Filename => "/var/cache/nagios2/status.dat", Version => 2.0 ); # for Nagios v3.0 my $log = Nagios::StatusLog->new( Filename => "/var/cache/nagios3/status.dat", Version => 3.0 ); METHODS
new() Create a new Nagios::StatusLog instance. The object will be initialized for you (using $self->update()). Nagios::StatusLog->new( "/var/opt/nagios/status.log" ); update() Updates the internal data structures from the logfile. $log->update(); service() Returns a Nagios::Service::Status object. Input arguments can be a host_name and description list, or a Nagios::Service object. my $svc_stat = $log->service( "localhost", "SSH" ); my $svc_stat = $log->service( $localhost_ssh_svc_object ); Nagios::Service::Status has the following accessor methods (For V1): host_name description status current_attempt state_type last_check next_check check_type checks_enabled accept_passive_service_checks event_handler_enabled last_state_change problem_has_been_acknowledged last_hard_state time_ok current_notification_number time_warning time_critical process_performance_data notifications_enabled latency scheduled_downtime_depth is_flapping plugin_output percent_state_change execution_time time_unknown failure_prediction_enabled last_notification obsess_over_service flap_detection_enabled list_services() Returns an array of all service descriptions in the status log.

This module contains 4 packages: Nagios::StatusLog, Nagios::Host::Status, Nagios::Service::Status, and Nagios::Program::Status. The latter 3 of them are mostly generated at compile-time in the BEGIN block. The accessor methods are real subroutines, not AUTOLOAD, so making a ton of calls to this module should be fairly quick. Also, update() is set up to only do what it says - updating from a fresh logfile should not invalidate your existing ::Status objects. AUTHOR
