Update v1.4.x -> v3.3.1
Posted: Mon Oct 10, 2011 6:42 am
Hi,
I'm updating our old Nagios 1.4.x (yes ancient i know) to v.3.3.1.
However after converting the config files so it works with the 3.3.1 I noticed that I was missing 1 important feature from 1.4 and that is mysql backend support.
Sofar i couldn't find this in v2.x or v3.x, was this feature completely removed after 1.4? Is there a new Nagios version out that supports the mysql backend? We build part of our monitoring around the data in the database.
Hope someone can point me in the right direction.

Code: Select all
# ./configure --help | grep mysql
--with-mysql-xdata enables use of MySQL database for all external data types except objects
--with-mysql-status enables use of MySQL database for storage of status data
--with-mysql-comments enables use of MySQL database for storage of comment data
--with-mysql-extinfo enables use of MySQL database for storage of extended data
--with-mysql-retention enables use of MySQL database for storage of retention data
--with-mysql-downtime enables use of MySQL database for storage of scheduled downtime data
--with-mysql-lib=DIR sets location of the MySQL client library
--with-mysql-inc=DIR sets location of the MySQL client include files
Hope someone can point me in the right direction.
