Issue Migration from Old Nagios XI Server to New

[nelsonw]

Hi,

I am attempting to complete a migration from my old Nagios XI server to a new one. I have followed the steps in https://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nag ... ios-XI.pdf.

However, when bringing up the new Nagios XI server, the checks it is running are against the old server. For example, if I go to "Core Config Manager -> Services -> Service Management", then click "Run Check Command", the command is run against the old server.

Also, on the "System Status" dashboard, it reports
- ndo2db is not running (even though I started the service)
- Performance Grapher - NPCD not running
- Monitoring Engine - no lock file found in /var/run/nagios.lock


Please advise


Thanks,
Nelson

What is the version of Nagios XI that you are upgrading from/to? What OS/architecture (from/to)?

Have you done any custom mods, e.g. using a proxy, local repos, non-standard php/apache version, offloaded mysqldb, etc.? Are you using ModGearman? Please, post the /tmp/upgrade.log on the forum.

Did the upgrade complete successfully? What is the output of the following command?

Code: Select all

grep full /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/xiversion

However, when bringing up the new Nagios XI server, the checks it is running are against the old server. For example, if I go to "Core Config Manager -> Services -> Service Management", then click "Run Check Command", the command is run against the old server.

What do you mean by that? Can you show us the actual command that you are running and the output of it?

Also, on the "System Status" dashboard, it reports
- ndo2db is not running (even though I started the service)
- Performance Grapher - NPCD not running
- Monitoring Engine - no lock file found in /var/run/nagios.lock

Can you start the services and verify their status?

Code: Select all

service ndo2db start
service ndo2db status
service nagios start
service nagios status
service npcd start
service npcd status
