How to know packages list while doing upgrade

Post by Gonela »

Hi Team,

We want to know which URLs need to allow while we upgrade the nagios. We have a plan to upgrade the nagiosxi to new version. We have restriction to download the packages. We need the list of url which we need to allow from network while upgrade the nagios server.

We do not keep a list from release to release what may need to be downloaded.

The only URL that we download directly form is https://assets.nagios.com

HOWEVER, many package additions are done through yum, so you would need access to those as well

I would strongly suggest trying to get on the actual offline install at somepoint as I had suggested to you here
https://support.nagios.com/forum/viewto ... 43#p249790

This would remove the need to hunt down any URL's because everything needed for upgrades is contained in the new offline tarball.

As stated in the last response.

We also don't control what URL's your package manager (repositories) are going to use, this is setup in your repos, and in RHEL environments, controlled by RedHat
