If this question has already been answered, just point me to the right link please.

I used Nagios XI's auto-discovery feature to find all our nodes on our network. How can I use Nagios XI to push the Linux Agent (NRPE) out to all the nodes belonging to the Linux Servers group?

We use Nagios XI 2104 R2.0, running on Redhat Enterprise 6.5, 64 bit. Proxy is in place and not an issue for us.

Autodiscovery does not push agents. You will need to do that with your own mechanisms: chef/puppet, scp scripts, build image, etc.

I don't know that anything we have will allow you to truly push agents to remote systems. Especially the linux agent, as it requires compilation on the remote system. You can however use nrds to manage configs for remote systems that connect to it.

Thanks for the reply. I think I can script this one, but since its only a handful of systems (versus several hundred) I can just as easily do it manually.
