Many Nagios addons use Livestatus as the backend like NagVis, Check_MK etc.
Installing Livestatus
- Download stable version livestatus zipped file from http://mathias-kettner.de/check_mk_download.html. Eg: mk-livestatus-1.2.2p3.tar.gz
- Unzip the file tar xzf mk-livestatus-1.2.2p3.tar.gz
- cd mk-livestatus-1.2.2p3
- ./configure
- make
- make install
Make install command will copy files livestatus.o and livecheck to /usr/local/lib/mk-livestatus, unixcat to /usr/local/bin - Now stop Nagios using sudo service nagios3 stop
