Can we upgrade the secondary server OS to latest version , because we have RHEL7 server has Primary server for Nagios monitoring.

Primary server --> RHEL 7 -->Nagios core 4.1.1
Secondary server --> CentOS 5.3 --> Nagios core 3.2.0

Hi,

So you want to run Core 3 on the second server using RHEL 7? Is this correct? I would consider upgrading OS and then Core to version 4.

I want to upgrade the CetOS server as it has been end of support.
We will get help only if we have upgrade the OS ,Do i need to upgrade the application also ?
or just upgrading the OS itself is OK.

Secondary server --> CentOS 5.3 --> Nagios core 3.2.0

You'll need to download the source code for the latest stable release of Nagios Core. Make sure to add altered web server user, apache, to the nagcmd group.
