[Pkg-nagios-devel] Bug#369332: nagios2: should have a plugin checking for multiple nagios daemons

[Marc Haber]

Package: nagios2
Severity: minor

We should have a plugin that checks for nagios daemon processes and
returns WARNING or CRITICAL if there are more than one nagios daemon
with PPID 1.

Nagios has a reputation for not reliably catching this situation
itself and doing funky things when multiple daemons are running.

Greetings
Marc
