I have recently been working on a procedure for restoring our Nagios XI environment. That is, all the steps from installing a new server to restoring our latest backup.
When testing this procedure I found that my new test XI instance didn't completely restore to the state of the original.
The configuration for AD-integration, scheduled backups and smtp were missing (maybe others as well?). We also had to enter our License keys again.
Are these settings not contained in the backups?
Our current setup and the new test-machine have similar specs:
- - 64-bit CentOS 7
- Nagios XI 5.5.2
- On both systems Nagios XI was installed manually (with the --non-interactive flag on the new system only).
