Nagios XI Install using ./fullinstall

[minnow]

When we run the ./fullinstall from /tmp/nagiosxi will we be able to tell it where to install, if not where does it default the install to on the system? We created an 80 GIG /opt/nagios filesystem and was hoping place the install in that location. We are installing on a "Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.9" system.

It will install by default to /usr/local
If you wish to change its location, I *HIGHLY* suggest you do so through a symlink.

Specifically:

Code: Select all

nagios core:     /usr/local/nagios
nagios XI:       /usr/local/nagiosxi
nagvis:          /usr/local/nagvis

[minnow]

Does the PostgreSQL and MySQL databases get installed there as well by default?

[lmiltchev]

Code: Select all

[root@testbox nagios]# whereis mysql
mysql: /usr/bin/mysql /usr/lib/mysql /usr/include/mysql /usr/share/mysql /usr/share/man/man1/mysql.1.gz
[root@testbox nagios]# whereis postgres
postgres: /usr/bin/postgres /usr/share/man/man1/postgres.1.gz

They get placed in the default mysql location of /var/lib/mysql/{nagios,nagiosql}
