Suggestion for documentation

[WillemDH]

Hello,

I have a small suggestion for the documentation of the upgrade instructions. http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ctions.pdf
As I have to manually reconfigure the backup script /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/backup_xi.sh after each upgrade. Otherwise the backup won't run after an upgrade.

nano /usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/backup_xi.sh

Configure the mysql password:

Code: Select all

Mysqlpass="<password>"

Add copy to remote location at the end of script (before exit)

Code: Select all

rsync --remove-source-files -azv /store/backups/nagiosxi /remote/mount
echo "Backup moved from /store/backups/nagiosxi to /remote/mount"

This could easily be forgotten by new Nagios XI admins. Other possibility is to not update the backup script, but I can imagine it sometimes needs to be changed.

Willem

Guess this post can be closed (using ftp backup atm)..
