Please provide a screenshot of the Snapshots & Maintenance screen so we can review the settings.

I'd also like you to run the backup_maintenance job under Admin > System > Command Subsystem, wait about 10 seconds and then provide me with a copy of /usr/local/nagioslogserver/var/jobs.log.

Were you seeing snapshots previously and it suddenly stopped working or is this a new setup?

What is the output look like if you run "ls -alh /usr/local/nagioslogserver/snapshots" ? Sometimes a failed backup will produce files of 0 bytes which will prevent NLS from displaying the rest of the files in the repo. The fix is to delete these 0 byte files.

Try running the job again, wait 30 seconds, then provide me with the jobs.log and PM a profile which can be gathered under Admin > System > System Status > Download System Profile or from the command line with:

/usr/local/nagioslogserver/scripts/profile.sh

This will create /tmp/system-profile.tar.gz.

Note that this file can be very large and may not be able to be uploaded through the PM system. This is usually due to the logs in the logstash and/or elasticseach directories found in it. If it is too large, please open the profile, extract these directories/files and send them separately.

[root@localhost ~]# df -h
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
/dev/mapper/centos-root 7.4T 6.8T 340G 96% /
/dev/mapper/snapshot_vg-data_lv 2.9T 1.8T 1.1T 63% /usr/local/nagioslogserver/snapshots
