running nagiosxi 5.8.1 on fresh redhat 8 system

however, when I do service nagiosxi restart I set error below

[root@orec2upm04 log]# service nagiosxi restart
Redirecting to /bin/systemctl restart nagiosxi.service
Failed to restart nagiosxi.service: Unit nagiosxi.service not found.

is there some instructions to start/stop set up service I'm missing?

Hi

Try these:

sudo systemctl stop nagios
sudo systemctl start nagios
sudo systemctl restart nagios
sudo systemctl status nagios

Let me know how it works for you.

Thanks

yes, bouncing nagios core works fine.
is the nagiosxi deprecated?

Hi

There is no nagiosxi service. If there was one it must have gotten deprecated.
I reached out to the devs but haven't gotten an answer as to if it ever existed
or was deprecated.

Here is how to start and stop XI manually:
Thanks
