A clarificarion about sql offload

Post by davide.bonicelli »

Hi, i'm thinking about to do a sql offload to lighten the nagiosxi server, but i have an older version so postgres is still in use.
So it's not clear if i can do it with the official guide:

Yes, you can still offload the MYSQL database if you like.
The nagiosxi database in Postgres can stay on the Nagios server and you can migrate the nagios and the nagiosql database can be offloaded to a remote server.

In the instructions, just ignore the sections that talk about the nagiosxi database.
Be sure to check out our Knowledgebase for helpful articles and solutions!
