Hi,

The upgrade script will use the offloaded credentials for the database, so the process is the same. Take a full backup or VM snapshot, log into the system as root, and run the following commands to upgrade.

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
Let us know if you have other questions.
Regards, Benjamin
