Offline upgrade

[CFT6Server]

We are upgrading Nagios XI with the offline option. Seems to be ok. I am looking through the logs and it seems there are number of wizards that refer to offline folders that aren't there etc. Is this normal and expected? or should I be downloading these manually?

As an example:

I will see these lines referring to an offline_install folder:
cp: cannot stat `/tmp/nagiosxi/packages/offline_install/Downloads/wmicinstall.py': No such file or directory
chmod: cannot access `wmicinstall.py': No such file or directory

Is this a concern for upgrades?

Here's another:

Code: Select all

CMD: rm -rf /usr/local/nagiosxi/tmp/mn3bd

It's not a concern unless you want to use those components. You can add, update and manage those details at any point via:

https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... izards.pdf

Assuming that we are using these wizards, does this means it isn't getting upgraded? Also the log refers to an offline path. Can we predownload and include them for offline upgrade instead of going through the site and redownloading and upgrading all the wizards manually.

[avandemore]

Wizards/components are bundled into the installer. If they have an upgrade available which is not in the installer then it's going to have to be done manually.

I can put in a Feature Request if you like for bulk processing of handling this, but it's not likely to be addressed immediately. That a complicated thing updating so many items as some of them are interdependent and a lot can go wrong.

[CFT6Server]

I don't really need to upgrade the wizards, but looks like the offline upgrade process does go through its own updates of the components, so I am just trying to see if this impacts functionality as we would have to review the logs of the upgrade and go through it line by line to see which component gave errors.

So if messages like
CHECKING FOR INSTALL SCRIPT '/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/windowsserver/install.sh'...
INSTALL SCRIPT DOES NOT EXIST.

Then I guess it is safe to ignore?

For the WMI reference, looks like it does extract some files and copies the plugin files, just not sure if this is expected.... so does this mean the WMI wizard didn't completed?
CHECKING FOR INSTALL SCRIPT '/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/windowswmi/install.sh'...
RUNNING INSTALL SCRIPT...
cp: cannot stat `/tmp/nagiosxi/packages/offline_install/Downloads/wmicinstall.py': No such file or directory
chmod: cannot access `wmicinstall.py': No such file or directory
/usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/windowswmi/install.sh: line 52: ./wmicinstall.py: No such file or directory
INSTALL SCRIPT FINISHED. RESULT='0'

[avandemore]

Yes it's safe to ignore.

The thing that bites a few is they don't understand each upgrade is going to overwrite those things. So if you've upgraded or changed out default things, they can get restored to default in an upgrade.

Thanks for confirming.

[avandemore]

No problem, let us know if you have further issues. Are we ok to lock this thread?

[CFT6Server]

Yes and thanks.
