If you are running nagios-1.2, yes, this is by design.
Perfparsed reads from a pipe, and creates it if necessary. If you run nag=
ios-1.2 before,
it will write to whatever the file is, and if it does not exist, write a =
new file.
If the design was to run perfparsed after nagios, you would loose the dat=
a written in
that file, or have perfparsed block because of that regular file.
