Nagios XI Update

[gzarif]

Hi,

I'm currently on Nagios XI 2014R2.6 and there is the new release of version 2014R2.7.

How do I update?

Also is there a chance I may lose any of my configuration, the only external things I'm using is the printer toner/maintenance checker; reason I ask is because of that attached screenshot.

Thanks,

G

The upgrade from 2.6 to 2.7 is a very minor one. It should not effect any of your plugins, config, historical data, etc.

How do I update?

It has to be done on the host right?

gzarif,

You can perform this update from the Web GUI or the CLI - whichever you prefer.
