Postgres

Hello,

Why is Postgres installed when installing latest Nagios XI fullinstall script. I thought all settings were migrated to MariaDB?

Grtz

Willem

I ran a clean install, and can confirm this as well.

Code: Select all

[root@centos7 nagiosxi]# rpm -qa | grep postgres
postgresql-libs-9.2.18-1.el7.x86_64
postgresql-server-9.2.18-1.el7.x86_64
postgresql-9.2.18-1.el7.x86_64
I was able to track it down to here -

Code: Select all

./nagiosxi/install.log:--> Processing Dependency: postgresql-libs for package: nagiosxi-deps-el7-5.4.1-1.noarch
./nagiosxi/install.log:--> Processing Dependency: postgresql-server for package: nagiosxi-deps-el7-5.4.1-1.noarch
I'll bring this up for discussion - thanks for pointing it out Willem!

So it is perfectly safe to remove these packages?

Yes, assuming you use yum remove --nodeps packagename

If you want to be sure postgres isn't running you can just see if ps -A | grep postgres returns anything (other postgres tests are available)
