Nagios Support Forum

Hello,
I am new to Nagios.
I want to purchase Nagios XI license but I am not sure I can install and use Nagios on my Windows XP computer?
I know XP is an old OS. However, I can't upgrade to higher windows version for some reasons.
Thanks, Peter

Nagios XI will not run directly on any Windows operating system. It is targeted toward CentOS and RedHat servers, both of which are Linux. You could use something like VirtualBox or VMWare to run a virtual Linux machine inside of your Windows XP, but being so old it might not support some of the newer virtualization features.
