Severity: normal

Nagios has a very bad reaction when the machine is loaded, it spaws too
many processes and kill the machine even harder:

root@ns2:/root/scripts# ps -C nagios h
  843 ?        SNs    0:31 /usr/sbin/nagios /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg

  18524 ?        SN     0:00 /usr/sbin/nagios /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg
  (... 146 processes skipped ...)

I think a trigger should take care of this and prevent such behaviours.

Thanks.

Changes: 
 nagios (2:1.3-cvs.20050402-1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
     - new upstream cvs snapshot (bugfixes and doc updates only).
     - somehow nagios got packaged as a debian-native package.  oops.
       thanks to Stephen Gran <sgran@debian.org> for pointing out
       the mistake (closes: #302245).
     - remove duplicate call do db_purge in maintainer scripts
     - remove duplicate call to invoke-rc.d in maintainer scripts, thanks
       to alban browaeys <browaeys.alban@wanadoo.fr> (closes: #301099).
     - don't jump the gun and use htpasswd-caudium just because it exists.
       instead, make sure that the admin has also not selected to configure
       nagios for apache variants (in which case htpasswd should stay as
       the nagios htpasswd).  thanks again to alban (closes: #301105).
     - check_started was broken for reloading nagios-pgsql and nagios-mysql.
       thanks to Olleg Samoylov <olleg@mipt.ru> (closes: #299470).
     - plugins would break in environments that use commas in their floating
       points.  as a workaround, set LC_NUMERIC=POSIX in the init script.
       thanks again to Olleg Samoylov <olleg@mipt.ru> (closes: #299467).
     - documentation changes suggested by David Greaves <david@dgreaves.com>
       (closes: #299613).
     - added a note about heavily loaded servers in README.Debian
       (closes: #283947, #292473).  thanks to Cyril Bouthors <cyb@debian.org>.
     - updated README.Debian, removing various out-of-date info, and putting
       in a little more about virtual hosts with apache.
     - also updated NEWS, as it looks like the recent side.html change broke
       the configs of some people who were using nagios in a virtualhost.  note
       that a simple fix exists, see README.Debian :)
     - change and clarification in the default contacts.  thanks to
       alban (closes: #302994).
