Nagios XI shutdown

[RIDS_I2MP]

Hello Team,

We have DC(data-center) movement for our application. AT that time, we have to shut down the Nagios XI servers and the Nagios XI application(GUI). In other words, we want to stop everything running from Nagios end. Once our DC movement activity is completed, we will have to bring it up and regain its current status.

Please share the process/document that needs to followed for shutting down Nagios (everything running from back end ad front end) and then bringing it up again.

Running the following from the CLI is sufficient

Code: Select all

shutdown -h now

When you start the server back up everything should startup automatically.

Hello,

Thanks for the reply!!

We have one Nagios Fusion server as well, please let us know the steps to shut down and start the same.

Also, please let us know the checks that we can perform after the activity (once Nagios server comes up) to make sure everything is up and running fine.

For Fusion the process would be the same.

On the Nagios XI server you can simple check if the nagios service is running

Code: Select all

service nagios status

On Fusion, if you can access the UI it should be running properly.
