Sudo using for NCPA install

Post by kkuznetsov »

Is that possible to install NCPA with sudo from Nagios XI Web > Configure > Deploy Agent page?

Hi @kkuznetsov,

Good question, right now, the Agent Deploy feature requires root access or the ability to sudo into root to install the agents. For more details, we have a knowledgebase article on how to use this feature and common troubleshooting tips.
Automatic Agent Deployment

Let us know if you have more questions.

Best Regards,

So, sudo user is working for NCPA installing as expected. We installed the agent on CentOS machines and can monitor them via Nagios now. We can close this post now. Thank you.
