Import old data to new XI?
Import old data to new XI?
Hi Guys,
I have a problem to move all old data to new XI. Is it possible in a simple export/import? So I have 2 XI run on the same version.
Please advise,
Thank you.

Simply backup your Nagios XI on the existing XI installation and restore to the new installation. Here's how:

Thank for the link.
I try restore from backup the information it's okay but I can't see the performance graph with the old data ~1,000 hosts. Alternatively, I was backed up and restore another XI it's worked all information Nagios XI but this XI is ~100 hosts. see the difference XI picture.
Could you advise?
Thanks.

@dimsum, Did you happen to migrate from a 32bit system to a 64bit one? If so, please take a look at this tutorial:
https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=166
Otherwise, could you send in your Nagios XI System Profile so I can review it?

Click the "Admin" > "System Profile" Menu
Click the "Download Profile" button
Save the profile.zip file and attach it to your next post, or you can upload it to a cloud storage of your choice and share a link with me in pm.

@dimsum, I received your profile and shared it with the support team. Seems like you may have some permission problems. Please navigate to: and run the script:
Let us know if that fixed your problem. Please allow XI to run for at least 10-15 minutes after you run this script before checking on it.
Code: Select all
/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/
Code: Select all
./reset_config_perms.sh

[root@nagiso-restore scripts]# ./reset_config_perms.sh
RESETTING PERMS
/bin/chmod: cannot access ‘/usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/’: No such file or directory
/bin/find: ‘/usr/local/nagios/share/perfdata/’: No such file or directory
Perhaps the folder is missing! Can I download from the old XI? When I run the backup on web UI isn't back up a perfdata?
Thanks.

Re: Import old data to new XI?
@dimsum, I think that folder should've been transferred over during the backup. Can you manually navigate to /usr/local/nagios/share/ and make sure that there's no perfdata folder? If there isn't you may copy it from the old XI server. After you copy it please run the following commands and show us the output:
Code: Select all
service nagios restart
service npcd status
service crond status

Hi,
The problem has been fixed. It's a problem with the link directory mismatch. because from the old XI has changed a perfdata path to /home.
Thanks guys for helping.
