Hello.

The problem is in the upgrade from other Nagiox XI 2014 to the new versión.

In XI 5 we are phasing out the Postgres Database. Currently when you upgrade from 2014 to 5 the postgres database is still used. However in a fresh install it does not get used. The developers are currently working on a migration script to your upgraded XI server can have postgres removed.

The problem right now is that when you try to restore your current XI 5 backup (which was upgraded from 2014) it still needs postgres. Your fresh server you are trying to restore to does not include postgres and hence the restore is failing.

The steps you need to follow to restore your XI 5 backup (which was upgraded from 2014) are:

* Install Nagios XI 2014R2.7 on the new server (it is preferable to have a "clean" install on the same OS/Architecture as on the old server)
* Upgrade this fresh install to XI 5.x
* Restore from the backup

Thanks for your reply.

We do not have a script for this at the moment, and I can't promise what the ETA would be on one. If you're going to wait, would you like me to close the thread?

[taycom]

Close the ticket and thanks for you reply

Sounds good. I'll close this out. If you ever have any more questions, don't hesitate to open a new thread.
