Update Fail - 5.6.10 to 5.6.12

[jenglish]

Yes. Upgrade.
Yes. Offline. Our Nagios server doesn't have connectivity to the public Internet. Just Redhat repos.

[scottwilkerson]

This is really bizarre, I actually don't see why an upgrade would ever run
./init-xidb

It's not part of the rpmupgrade script

Lets try this

Code: Select all

yum reinstall nagiosxi-5.6.12-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

[jenglish]

I have not run the reintsall command yet, but this is what I am seeing. Which is odd to me.

Code: Select all

[jenglish@boy-adams ~]$ date ; grep full /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/xiversion ; cat /etc/redhat-release ; uname -r
Thu Mar 12 21:59:48 EDT 2020
full=5.6.12
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.10 (Santiago)
2.6.32-754.23.1.el6.x86_64
[jenglish@boy-adams ~]$

I'm going to try to reinstall still:

Code: Select all

[root@boy-adams nagiosxi]# yum reinstall nagiosxi-5.6.12-1.el6.x86_64.rpm

Ok, and now:

Code: Select all

[jenglish@boy-adams ~]$ date ; grep full /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/xiversion ; cat /etc/redhat-release ; uname -r
Thu Mar 12 22:04:19 EDT 2020
full=5.6.12
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.10 (Santiago)
2.6.32-754.23.1.el6.x86_64
[jenglish@boy-adams ~]$

I think it's okay, but I'm a little hesitant. Part of me feels like I should revert to my snapshot of my virtual machine and start over to try and reproduce.

Thoughts?

I actually think you are ok. The version you are getting from /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/xiversion is correct and this is moved in the most critical part of the upgrade.

At this point if anything isn't working it should only be the result of a configuration problem

[jenglish]

I ended up restoring the snapshot for this virtual machine. We were seeing a lot of NRPE errors. Thanks for your help. We're going to skip updating Nagios at this point because we're moving our instance to a RHEL7 server shortly.

Sounds good
