AIX 7.1 support.

[bennyboy]

Hi,

I just try to install a Nagios agent on AIX 7.1. It's not working...

Can you help pelase.

Code: Select all

root@sxtcog0349:/home/marbe020/aix-nrpe-agent# ./fullinstall
=============================
Nagios XI AIX Agent Installer
=============================


This script will do a complete install of the Nagios XI 
AIX agent by executing all necessary sub-scripts.

IMPORTANT: This script should only be used on a AIX 
           system.  Do NOT use this on a system running 
           any other operating system.

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]y
Proceeding with installation...
This platform (aix7.1) is not currently supported.
root@sxtcog0349:/home/marbe020/aix-nrpe-agent# oslevel
7.1.0.0
root@sxtcog0349:/home/marbe020/aix-nrpe-agent# 

Thank you!!!

Do you plan to officially support AIX 7.1 like the other edition?

I don't believe it is on the roadmap at this time. We don't have all of these systems at our site that we can test binaries versus. Everyones system is slightly different as well, so it is complicated to just compile a binary and assume it is going to work on both installations. While it would be nice to have official support for UX, AIX, etc.. It is hard to find a solution without having those systems present. NRPE is open source, so if changes needed to be made to it to support system X and system Y, it can be done.
