Nagios XI 5.7.5 (Cent OS 6.9) Upgrade

[Tailor993]

Dear All,

I Have a Cent OS 6.9 server with Nagios Xi 5.7.5.
The Nagios upgrade is not possible in the current OS version. If I got it correctly there is no straightforward OS Upgrade for Cent OS main version.
I see on the Nagios webpage there is a preinstalled VM image for new installations. On the other hand for the migration, I need an image with Nagios XI 5.7.5.

Can I find a VM with this version with a higher CentOS version?

Thank you for your help.
Regards,
Attila

Hi,

The supported upgrade path would be to create a new server with CentOS8 (minimal installation).

Then on that new server install Nagios 5.7.5 (found at https://www.nagios.com/downloads/nagios ... -releases/)

Then you can backup your existing Nagios XI and restore it to the new server running CentOS with Nagios XI 5.7.5

Then you can upgrade to the latest version of Nagios XI by following:

Let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks!
