Restoring Nagios XI to factory default did not work well

[habuhejleh]

Dear All,

Kindly note that I did restore to the factory default to our Nagios XI by the below command:
cd /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/
./restore_defaults.sh

However the home page still displaying the hosts and services.
I tried redoing the above commands but still the same
I tried also rebooting the server but no luck

Please advise on how to solve this problem

Thank you,
Haitham

When you run the restore_defaults script. What is the output?

Is it similar to what is in this kb article? Could you post it for us.

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/
./restore_defaults.sh

Also, what version of Nagios XI and what OS are you on?

[kyang]

The error is in this file

Error: Service has no hosts and/or service_description (config file '/usr/local/nagios/etc/services/localhost.cfg', starting on line 65)

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagios/etc/services/localhost.cfg

On line 65. That a look there and see what is missing.

64 define service {
65 host_name localhost
66 service_description Service Status - httpd
67 use local-service
68 check_command check_xi_service_status!httpd!!!!!!
69 register 1
70 }

I have uploaded the the profile. please advise asap.

[mcapra]

Please try the steps mentioned in this KB article:
https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=144

Something funky is going on with your configs. Probably in the CCM rather than the actual files.

I'd also double check, in the Core Config Manager, the service definitions you have for localhost. Make sure that that the services you have defined in the Core Config Manager are tied to a host.

[kyang]

Thanks for the help @mcapra!

habuhejleh, please double check your definitions in the Core Config Manager as mcapra has suggested.

Don't forget to run through the kb article for those instructions.

Click Write --> Delete --> Write --> Verify --> Post the output of "Verify"

If no errors, then proceed to the restore_defaults.sh script.

Code: Select all

cd /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/
./restore_defaults.sh

[habuhejleh]

Hi ,

Please find below the output:
64 define service {
65 host_name localhost
66 service_description Service Status - httpd
67 use local-service
68 check_command check_xi_service_status!httpd!!!
!!!
69 register 1
70 }

And find in the attached a screen show of localhost services.Please advice ASAP.

[kyang]

Did you run through the steps in that kb article? Here is the link.
https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=144

Could you send a screenshot of this service in your Core Config Manager? (CCM)

Here is an example of what I would like to see.

Thanks!

[habuhejleh]

please find screen shots as below:

Please advise. Note that this Nagios is installed on VM.
