Re: Nagios Backups consuming a lot of disk space.

When checking the logs, this is what I get: mysqldump: Got error: 2013: Lost connection to MySQL server during query when using LOCK TABLES Error backing up MySQL ...

Hi all, I have recently Migrated my Nagios XI server from CentOS 7.9(EOL) to Ubuntu 22.04 LTS; everything has been working smoothly so far. I have kept both servers running side by side. My CentOS is running Nagios XI 5.11.1, and my Ubuntu 22.04 LTS is running Nagios XI 2024R1.3. I have noticed that...

Re: Nagios XI Migrate Server not working.
Hi @gwesterman. Thanks for your reply. The "Manual" migration worked with no issues. I have just a thing that I couldn't find in the forum: I have migrated servers, and my new server is on a different IP and VLAN. While testing the connectivity with a few hosts and manually triggering aler...
