Error: nagiosxi-deps-el7 conflicts with nrpe-3.2.0-6.el7.x86

[scottwilkerson]

we cannot do up gradation directly on PRD,

I understand that.

Restore PRD backup to Test/Dev environment (same Nagios XI version)--> then upgrade Test environment to latest Nagios XI.. -- > Take Backup --> now restore that backup to new OS with same latest version. ??

Correct me if i am missing something as this we can do..

That sounds great!

Then you can also take a moment and let the Test/Dev run for a minute making sure everything appears normal before taking the backup that will be used to restore on the new OS

this will take a LOT of variables out of the mix

This system needs to have localhost added to the no_proxy in /etc/wgetrc

see
https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=147

How was this functioning?

after you add that, you can run upgrade again..

The good news is the upgrade script is close to done

[rtsupport]

.. For installation server is ready with RHEL subscription manager
.. RHEL optional Repo enabled
.. Proxy is configured as per - https://support.nagios.com/kb/article.php?id=147

2- Take backup from updated Test server and scp to new RHEL 7 Server
3- Restore it using ./restore script

Before step 2 You will need to install nagios xi latest on the server

The rest looks correct!

[rtsupport]

one more thing would also like to clear.

As we have configured nagiosramdisk so -- we have to follow.

1.
-Install latest version of Nagios XI.
-Create nagiosramdisk
-Restore backup
-run /upgrade script

OR

2.

-Install latest version of Nagios XI.
-Restore backup
-Create nagiosramdisk
-run /upgrade script

Note : In Test server nagiosramdisk is created and configured as /u01/var/nagiosramdisk but as per ramdisk doc it will create and configured /var/nagiosramdisk

so is there anything which need to be taken care ? before proceeding
