Hello Team,
We have a Nagios XI running on AWS cloud and we are planning to upgrade the application from 5.8.1 to 5.8.4. We have the paid support plan in place. Does anyone know if we can get support from the Nagios Vendor during the upgrade activity? If so, what is the process to get the support?
Thanks, Pavan

Hi Pavan,
I checked your account and you do have phone support, so feel free to call during the upgrade (
Contact Nagios).
You can also open a support ticket for the upgrade, share your system profile, and we can take look at it for any errors or concerns before you proceed with the upgrade.

Hi Pavan,
Thanks for the profile, that looks good. I did notice some crashed tables in the database log, but those have cleared out.
Also, the root partition is 74% full, so that is something to monitor.
Take a full backup or VM snapshot before proceeding, and I recommend using the manual upgrade method. Log in as root, and run the following commands.
Code: Select all
cd /tmp
rm -rf nagiosxi xi*.tar.gz
wget http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagiosxi/xi-latest.tar.gz
tar xzf xi-latest.tar.gz
cd nagiosxi
./upgrade
If you have any troubles, please share the full upgrade log so we can review the errors.
If you would like to use your phone support, our team is available during the following hours (CST/Chicago time).
Monday – Thursday: 9:00 am – 5:00 pm
Friday: 9:00 am – 2:00 pm
