Shutting down NagiosXI for OS patching

[krobertson71]

I was trying to shut down the major components for XI in the Admin menu. I was able to get "Monitoring Engine" and "Database Backend" to come down but "Performance Grapher" throws an error.

Is there a way to completely shutdown Nagios XI? After they apply to Redhat el6 OS patches they reboot the server. I don't want Nagios XI to be running when this happens.

If all I need to do is stop the Monitoring Engine and the Database backend to be safe then I am good. But I would think there would be a way to bring the whole app down before a reboot.

You can stop all of the services from the CLI if you want to:

Code: Select all

service nagios stop
service ndo2db stop
service mysqld stop
service postgresql stop
service crond stop
service npcd stop
service httpd stop
