Unfortunately, we don't have any specific documentation on the topic for Core. I don't know how good https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LLyzBQ0OOgE is, but Mike Weber previously did training with us. He has since retired (we'd love to have him back). You might also take a look at https://exchange.nagios.org/directory/P ... OS--2F-OSX.

Please let us know if you still have questions after watching the video. Thanks!

There's one that 404s. We can definitely fix that. What other links, if any, are bad? Thanks!

UPDATE: I believe this is fixed now.

I have since watched the video I mentioned above and while it goes back and forth between XI and Core, I think you will find it useful.
