I am following https://www.thruk.org/documentation/install.html to install Livestatus addon for Nagios which provides real time status data. Is there a way to enable the below entry in /usr/local/nagios/etc/nagios.cfg file. I did search using yum and dnf package manager on CentOS Stream release 8 but unable to locate livestatus.o addon or install it.

Code: Select all

broker_module=/opt/local/livestatus/livestatus.o /tmp/live.sock
Any help will be highly appreciable. Please guide/suggest. Thanks in advance.

Best Regards,

Kaushal

From the documentation you linked:
Refer to https://checkmk.com/cms_livestatus.html on how to install livestatus onto your monitoring box. The Lab Consol Repository has livestatus rpm packages. For debian based Linux systems just use the provided packages of your distribution.
Sounds like you'll need to compile livestatus from scratch, as CentOS Stream is not Debian based.

Hi @kaushalshriyan,

That's not our project. I would recommend doing a search on that or visiting the companies website for help.
