We used bulk loading 400-500 hosts and services and it was ok in Nagios XI 2014 R2.7
But it is time out to bulk loading 250 hosts and services in the newest Nagios XI 5.2.2.
Is it the bug in the new version ?

Are you seeing anything in your /var/log/httpd/error_log or /var/log/httpd/ssl_error_log related to timeouts or anything? You may need to adjust the max_execution_time in the /etc/php.ini file.

Can you elaborate? How are you cloning these hosts using the "Bulk Host Cloning and Import" wizard? Run the following command and show the output:

Thanks.
We don't change php.ini file and there is no definition of max_input_vars. The default value of max_input_time is 60.
We just use the default bulk loading tool in Nagios XI 5 . We build up Nagios XI 2014 and bulk loading the same file and it's ok

You can add this line:
to the bottom of the php.ini file and restart apache:
The default value of "max_input_vars" is 1000.

We've seen issues in the past with people trying to bulk clone too many hosts at the same time via the "The Bulk Host Cloning & Import Wizard". Adding this line to the bottom of php.ini fixed the problem.

Thanks for your support. I will test later

Let us know if this works for you!
