I am running the latest version of NagiosXI (2012R1.5) though I noticed that Nagios Core is running at an older version than what's currently available. Do I need to upgrade Core separately? I've been following the NagiosXI upgrade guide (http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... ctions.pdf), is there a separate guide to upgrade Core that's running under the covers? Is it recommended to do so?
NagiosXI Version 2012R1.5
Core Version 3.4.1
Thanks much!
Upgrading Core for NagiosXI?
Re: Upgrading Core for NagiosXI?
Do not upgrade core on an XI box, it will break things. New versions of core are occasionally rolled into XI install/upgrade tarballs. But I repeat, do not upgrade core on the XI system, it will lead to all sorts of bad things potentially.

Right on, I won't touch it. I appreciate the response.
I was wondering about upgrade capability because one of our security guys was asking about a vulnerability impacting Nagios Core <3.4.4

Re: Upgrading Core for NagiosXI?
Yeah, we'll be upgrading Core to 3.4.4 in XI fairly soon. That security vulnerability is only a vulnerability for authenticated users, but we still plan on addressing it soon. We just like to verify the stability of the Core release before we roll it into XI.
