Thank you very much for your assistance this morning, @scottwilkerson.

Right now, I am stuck where snmptt cannot be found. I am uncertain if this has to do with electing to update my sudoers file later.

Attached is a snippet of the manual upgrade process.

Hmm, in the prereq's section it cannot find the snmptt package either

Code: Select all

No package snmptt available.
can you run

Code: Select all

yum info snmptt
This should also be in epel repository

In addition to what scottwilkerson said, you could try upgrading to XI 5.5.1, which was released today. There are some bugs that were fixed in the latest release. You could see the changelog here:

https://www.nagios.com/downloads/nagios-xi/change-log/

Make all of the necessary backups, snapshots, etc. and run:

Code: Select all

cd /tmp
rm -rf xi* nagiosxi
wget https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagiosxi/5/xi-5.5.1.tar.gz
tar xvf xi-5.5.1.tar.gz
cd nagiosxi
./upgrade
Let us know if you were able to upgrade successfully.

With the addition of the snmptt and shellinabox packages from the EPEL repository, I was able to successfully upgrade to 5.5.1 through the web UI. It looks like I am all set, but I want to check outside of the web UI to ensure it has been fully upgraded.

What's the best way to do this on the Linux server itself? Run the upgrade script again, or is there a specific log file of which I am unaware?

Rerunning the upgrade script won't hurt anything. You can examine the upgrade.log, which is located in "/tmp/nagiosxi" or/and "/usr/local/nagiosxi/var" directory.

Let us know if it is OK to close this topic. Thank you!

Based on the log files and our current version listed in the web UI, I would say we're all set. Thank you all very much for your assistance with this. This thread may now be locked.
