rlacasse, There's a reasonable chance upgrading fixes the issue if you're not seeing it on a 5.9.3 machine. Often times, you can upgrade directly to the latest version of XI without issue. That said, we recommend doing incremental upgrades whenever possible. The smaller the increments the better, so...

sneha.irali, As long as you're sure you have the correct packages and versions, and have registered your repository (proxy server) with yum, the upgrade should work as expected.

@AngeloMileto, Unless you want to check the package versions via SSH, I believe you're going to need to put a plugin and an executor (NCPA in this case) on each host you want to check. If you're going to write your own, here are the plugin development guidelines . I think that's a decent idea for an...

@schadalawada,
