Upgrade from 5.4.4 to 5.5.2-1 ?

[Interrex]

Hi.

I have an offline installation of Nagios XI, it's on release 5.4.4.
I see that the latest offline version available are 5.5.2-1 released on 27/07/2018.

Is it recommended to upgrade directly from 5.4.4 to 5.5.2-1 ?

This shouldn't be a problem, with one exception, you should run the following before proceeding with the upgrade which will prevent a possible yum lock.

Code: Select all

rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/nrdsconfigmanager/install.sh
rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/nagvis/install.sh
rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/components/snmptrapsender/install.sh
rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/windowswmi/install.sh
rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/domain_expiration/install.sh
rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/ftpserver/install.sh
rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/exchange/install.sh
rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/mailserver/install.sh
rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/mongodb_database/install.sh
rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/mongodb_server/install.sh
rm -f /usr/local/nagiosxi/html/includes/configwizards/folder_watch/install.sh

Thank you for your reply.

I run the upgrade today, succesfully.

I had to remove snmptt-1.4-0.9.beta2.el7.noarch wich made an conflict.

Had some old nrpe checks that did not support nrpe3 - fixed them after reading this article: https://support.nagios.com/kb/article/n ... d-518.html

And my check_oracle_health did not work after the upgrade, got he error:
install_driver(Oracle) failed: Can't load '/usr/local/lib64/perl5/auto/DBD/Oracle/Oracle.so' for module DBD::Oracle: libclntsh.so.12.1: cannot open shared object file:

Everything worked as normal from cli, so I skipped the $user$ variable for the command.
Changed: $USER1$/check_oracle_health = /usr/local/nagios/libexec/check_oracle_health
PS: Had to update the path for LD_LIBRARY_PATH and ORACLE_HOME

Also I got some trouble with my service groups, so I had to delete them all. I belive that was some old logic that failed.

It seems like you have it under control. Do you have any further questions/issues or it is OK to close this topic?

Hi.
You can close this one, we got performance issues on v5.5.2.1, high cpu load and ipc mq problems.
Upgraded to v5.5.5, and everything is working stable.

We did not have any after work when upgrading from 5.5.2-1 to 5.5.5 (offline upgrade)
All checks workd as normal after upgrade.

Great! I am glad to hear that!

I am closing this topic.
