It may be 'apparent', but this assumption is not accurate Yes -- you will need to read and correct the changed syntax (updated and more current against upstream) You may 'pre-flight' the files thus: # /usr/sbin/nagios -v /etc/nagios/nagios.cfg locally and particularly I needed to tweak the DNS checking in: /etc/nagios/objects/dns.cfg The detail which is returned by the suggested systemd viewing suggestion is insufficiently long, and most people do not reach back further (there are systemd options to do so, but ...).
