Disabling Nagios XI update check on first install

Post by niebais »

2012-r2.7 - Centos 64 bit

Here's another question. I have disabled the update check in the DB already, but when we first log into the Nagios XI system it is somehow performing an update check. Is there some way to disable this component entirely?

Nevermind, I think I found it in the install.php.

There is actually a config in the GUI to shut that off. Under Admin - System Settings

No need to change any code :)

Unless I misunderstood what you were asking.

Yes the check box in the GUI should disable automatic update checks as Bandit showed, let us know if you were talking about something else!

Here's the problem. When you first install the application it makes that check whether or not that box is checked or not. That's the main problem I'm having.

It's strange because I changed the parameter in the PSql DB to disable checks, but it still manages to perform a check.

I set this option right after installing nagios xi with the script:
set_option("auto_update_check","0");
