Updating agents

Post by echonoc »

Hi All,

I need help from you. Does Nagios XI have any centralized method to keep reporting agents updated via the console?
How to do that?

There isn't currently any built-in NCPA agent updating functionality but NCPA can be re-deployed from Configure > Deploy Agent.

Most use a config management solution such as Ansible/SCCM/group policy/etc.

The Deploy Agent functionality uses Ansible on the backend which could be utilized to update them as well with another Ansible playbook. See here for more information:
