Nagios BPI problem

Post by lafargeuser »

I have followed below pdf to configure BPI in NagiosXI. I have installed it as per the steps given below. Now I can see Nagios BPI option. But I didnt see any information after clicking to it.

This document is from 2011 and it is outdated. The Nagios BPI has been included in XI by default since 09/04/2012 (2012RC2). There is a "Nagios BPI" link under the "Home" page ("Details" menu).
I suppose something got messed up when you try to reinstall it. What is the version of Nagios XI that you are currently using?

This doesn't seem right - you are missing bunch of repos. Here's what I have on my test box:

Code: Select all

ll /etc/yum.repos.d
total 56
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1991 Oct 23  2014 CentOS-Base.repo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  509 Sep 25  2011 CentOS-CR.repo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  647 Oct 23  2014 CentOS-Debuginfo.repo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  289 Oct 23  2014 CentOS-fasttrack.repo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  630 Oct 23  2014 CentOS-Media.repo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 5394 Oct 23  2014 CentOS-Vault.repo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  957 Nov  4  2012 epel.repo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1056 Nov  4  2012 epel-testing.repo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  739 Mar 20  2013 mirrors-rpmforge
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  717 Mar 20  2013 mirrors-rpmforge-extras
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  728 Mar 20  2013 mirrors-rpmforge-testing
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root  301 Jan 19 12:08 nagios-6.repo
-rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1128 Mar 20  2013 rpmforge.repo
I followed the steps you did and I was able to recreate the issue (breaking my BPI). I fixed the issue simply by running the "upgrade" script from the install directory ("Upgrading to the same version").

Code: Select all

cd /tmp/nagiosxi
./upgrade
Now I can successfully access BPI (I tested it on Nagios XI 2012R1.2).

Getting internet download access for packages is challenge in our environment due to policy compliant.

Is there any way,I can upgrade it to latest version.
How, can I transfer my existing nagios configuration files to latest realesed installed. Here, I have used Nagios virtual appliance & tried to restore backup of existing Nagios but everything got replicated to new Nagios server inclueding old Version. So if there is any chance I can ship my old nagios configuration data to new one.

Are you using a proxy or you are in a completely offline environment? How did you install XI on the first place? Did you use one of our VMs or you installed from a source?

The upgrade procedure doesn't take very long - probably less than 5 min. Is it possible to bring your server online for a short time, perform the upgrade, and put it back offline?

I'm sorry, did I miss something? Can you run the upgrade process on the offline install?
