[bosco]

please see the import config window

[rkennedy]

The linked documents are the best in my experience, the important part to make sure is you import everything in the correct order to avoid dependency issues.

Code: Select all

php /usr/local/nagiosxi/tools/xiprepimport.php orig/commands.cfg
php /usr/local/nagiosxi/tools/xiprepimport.php orig/contacts.cfg
php /usr/local/nagiosxi/tools/xiprepimport.php orig/dependencies.cfg
php /usr/local/nagiosxi/tools/xiprepimport.php orig/hostgroups.cfg
php /usr/local/nagiosxi/tools/xiprepimport.php orig/hosts.cfg
php /usr/local/nagiosxi/tools/xiprepimport.php orig/servicegroups.cfg
php /usr/local/nagiosxi/tools/xiprepimport.php orig/services.cfg
php /usr/local/nagiosxi/tools/xiprepimport.php orig/templates.cfg
php /usr/local/nagiosxi/tools/xiprepimport.php orig/timeperiods.cfg

I ditto rkennedy's suggestion. Let us know if the outcome is any different this time around, perhaps something was imported out of step previously.

Please let us know if you need additional assistance.

Can you PM me a fresh copy of the configuration files you're attempting to import?

[bosco]

Please see the profile attached.

Mod Edit: Profile received and shared with technicians.

[mcapra]

Are you certain that profile contains all of the files you are attempting to import? I don't see any _multiple_hosts.cfg file or any of the mentioned templates. You may need to copy the files directly using scp or sftp.

I did a basic regex grep through all the files and couldn't find anything that would match the problematic characters. The import tool uses a similar process; It parses host_name directives and looks for those characters using a regex match.

[bosco]

I took profile from Nagios XI GUI, you can gather a profile via Admin -> System Profile -> Download Profile.

is there any other method to fetch this via winscp
