How to install Nagios XI on AWS RHEL server

[patrick.cheung]

Hello,

I would like to install Nagios XI on AWS RHEL images. Although I can run yum on the instances for installing packages, when I try to run either ./fullinstall or ./0-yum, it failed me tests as it cannot read the system id. Any advices?
PS. similar issues when I try to install NRPE on AWS RHEL.

Thanks!

[root@ip-10-254-55-112 nagiosxi]# ./0-yum
Configuring Yum...
ERROR: unable to read system id.
package centos-release is not installed
Unable to locate SystemId file. Is this system registered?
ERROR: Please add the 'Optional' channel to your Red Hat systems subscriptions.
You can do so in the Redhat Network web interface or using the rhn-channel command.
or, install the yum-utils package and use the following command:
yum-config-manager --enable rhel-6-server-optional-rpms

Is your system registered with RHN?

Is your system registered with RHN?

I do not separate RHN registation as it is RHEL image provided by AWS. Per their FAQ as below attached, all RHEL AMI come automatically registered to Red Hat Update Infrastructure (RHUI) in AWS. I can run yum to install other packages but I assume there are something special for running the Nagios XI install script.

PS. To correct, seems I can install NRPE linux agent per the following instruction but not the Nagios XI.

Thanks!

You will need to comment out lines 31-39 of 0-yum then attempt to fullinstall again. Hopefully it should go through just fine from there.

Is it 0-yum or 0-repos?

I'm trying to install Nagios XI on a AWS RHEL instance and I get the same error message

Hi Team,

I have commented out lines 30-57 in the 0-repos script. I got past this message now and get the below abort message.

I'm not sure how AWS handles this, but you will need some packages made available only in the RHN optional channel.

Any aversion to CentOS? We have ran into this issue specifically on AWS before and I don't know that we ever found the solution. The optional channel on AWS is not our specialty. With CentOS though, * it just flippin works *

We have already suggested the to use the centos VM available for AWS users but my client doesn't want a CentOS instance in their infrastructure. Any way we have gone past that error message now and now stuck at initializing the DB's. We are stuck at ./3-dbservers, When we run this (or the fullinstall script tries to run this file) we get a prompt to enter the password for MySQL, I have tried both nagios and nagiosxi but it doesn't work and the installation fails to proceed further. please help

This can be related to the dependencies not being installed because they were commented out in the repos script.

Can you please post the results of a yum repolist allinside of code wraps?
