Re: Upgrading XI from 5.9.3 to 5.10.0

I've been away from teh office for awhile.....

I think I will give rPikes solution an option and see what happens.
I have nagios on vmware, so taking a snapshot and restore only takes a few min if bad things happen

Re: Deleting a contact

If you don't have Enterprise, you can go to the Core Config Manager (CCM), click on the Contacts or Contact Groups, go to the object of interest, then click on the Relationships button (white "i" in a blue circle) next to your object.

Perfect, thank you!

Deleting a contact

I have some contacts that I need to nuke from Nagios.

Is there a way I can get a list of every server and/or host or contact group a contact is part of?

That way i wont have to do the slow process of going through all the failures when appliying settings

Re: Migrating Nagios XI to new machince

Well, i migrated it to a fresh install. all i needed to do to migrate was to following the nagios backup and restore instructions. Copy the backup file over to the new system (in a specific spot), then do a restore. I will say that I was extreamly surprised by how quick and easy it was. In nagios xi...
