Offline nagiosxi repository

[WWWilco]

We run NagiosXI on RHEL.

Within our enviroment we have a local RHEL repository server. This repo server is synchronized every night.

As of Nagios XI 2024R1.3.2 and above, these offline tarballs ship with all the dependent RPMs, and no longer require access to an external repository.

The size of the offline tar files has increased from 80-100M to 4-8G (depending on RHEL version)

This is very inconvenient since we have a complete and reliable offline RHEL repo.

We only need the relevant NagiosXI rpms.

In the future, will the offline repo's contain all dependent rpm's?
It would be more convenient to provide tar files with NagiosXI rpms

Hi @WWWilco,

Thanks for your message. Apologies for the inconvenience on your end.

Offline installs are likely to continue to ship with all packages. Shipping offlines with everything was very highly requested. I wish we could make everyone equally happy on this issue.

My suggestion would be:

Make both, only NagiosXI rpms and Complete Repository, online available.

I wonder if we are not on the same page. There are repos available here: https://repo.nagios.com/?repo=rpm-rhel
