Does NAGIOSXI support AIX 7.1 ?

Post by srikanth.kallu »

does Nagiosxi support AIX 7.1 ?
I know it supports 5.3 and 6.1 technically base of AIX 7.1 is AIX 6.1, so it should support 7.1 also but it gave me any error

Do you want to continue? [Y/n]Y
Proceeding with installation...
This platform (aix7.1) is not currently supported.

We haven't tested it with 7.1, however if you are willing to give it a go you can modify line 46 of ./fullinstall to be

Code: Select all

aix7.1|aix6.1|aix5.3)
and try again.

I cannot offer any promises, but definitely let us know if this all works as expected.

Are you referring to a monitoring wizard? There is one built in for Linux already, and the AIX Wizard may be found at:

This wizard can be installed on your Nagios XI server by downloading it, then uploading the file to the Web Interface via:

Code: Select all

Admin>Manage Config Wizards>Browse, and once it has been selected, Upload

The link in there refers to aix agent.

Now i am looking for a way to monitor that server

That is the wizard not the agent, the wizard will assist you in monitoring the AIX server much like the Windows Server, Linux Server, Printer... etc wizards provide you with the ability to set hosts, services, and options without you having to manually add them in their respective configuration files as you had to in Core.

slansing is correct, but use the link next to "Download URL" do download, not the link in the detailed description.
