Now I get this error:

/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/restore_xi.sh /tmp/1568125109.tar.gz

WARNING: you are trying to restore a el6 backup on a el7 system
Compiled plugins and other binaries as well as httpd configurations
will NOT be restored.

You will need to re-download the Nagios XI tarball, and re-install
the subcomponents for this system. More info here:

Extracting backup to /store/backups/nagiosxi/

Can you put your backup file in /store/backups/nagiosxi/ and try it again from that location?

That worked and the restore was successful with the OS restore. I had used my own copy of Centos instead of the one from Nagios' site.

Thanks for your help!

Excellent, glad to hear it's working now! Closing thread.
