NagiosXI NSCA/NRDP not working to second NagiosXI

[SDohmen]

We have 2 nagiosxi machines. 1 is our main central where currently all is being send too (distributed monitoring solution) and the other is our development machine.

Last week i decided to upgrade the test machine to the latest version 3.2 (from 2.1). Firstly i made a backup of the main central to restore on the test machine so the data was as current as possible. After that i did the upgrade which was successful. I checked all the modules and all seems to be working fine on the test machine.

The problem now is that i want to restore the data connection between the 2. Before the upgrade i used nsca (even though the bug prevented perf data to be sent) which worked fine after i stopped the selinux firewall (NRDP never worked at all).

So after the upgrade i setup nsca again but i noticed no results where being recieved. I checked the logs and i noticed that the nsca was giving crc errors. After some searching around i found out that the newer version wasn't backwards compatible with the old one. What i did was grab the package from the installer and install that one on the main central. This seemed to have resolved the crc error but i am still not getting any results on the test central.

What can i do to resolve this? I would prefer to have nrdp working as its much cleaner.

By mere luck i found a solution here on the forum.

The nrdp output is working fine now. Sorry for the extra thread about it. Since the original commands don't support performance data i changed the 2 commands to the following:

Host check: $USER1$/host_check $HOSTNAME$ $HOSTSTATEID$ '$HOSTOUTPUT$ | $HOSTPERFDATA$'
Service check: $USER1$/service_check '$HOSTNAME$' '$SERVICEDESC$' '$SERVICESTATEID$' '$SERVICEOUTPUT$ | $SERVICEPERFDATA$ [$SERVICECHECKCOMMAND$]'

Thanks for updating with the solution, glad it's working for you!
