Hi Team,

We have upgraded Nagios XI to 5.6.9 recently and the upgrade went well however, post the upgrade that root partition is getting fill because of this message Check_nrpe remote server does not support version 3 packets.

Could you please let us know how to prevent this message which cause issue filling the space.

Try the solutions posted in the KB article below:

https://support.nagios.com/kb/article/n ... s-786.html

You may also clear some disk space. You can delete old logs in the "/var/log" directory and sub-directories. You can also delete whatever you don't need in the /tmp/" directory. Maybe you have some old backups that you can delete in "/store/backups/nagiosxi".

Tip: In order to find the 10 largest files in /var/log directory, you can run:

Code: Select all

du -a /var/log | sort -n -r | head -n 10
After you clear some room, add more disk space to your Nagios XI server. Please, review our Nagios XI - Resizing the VM Disk SIze" document here:

Almost always, when you run out of disk space, you would end up with corrupted tables in the database, so you will need to run our database repair script, too.

Hope this helps.
