At the moment I cannot upgrade the OS on my Nagios XI VM, so cannot upgrade to the latest XI.
What is latest version supported on Centos 7 and where I can I download it?

Hello @rpike,

There's a nice graph here: https://support.nagios.com/kb/article/n ... -1045.html

Looks like XI R1.1.5 is the latest version compatible with CentOS 7. You may still run into a package hosting issue, though, where you can't source the packages you need since the CentOS 7 package repos are no longer serving. In that case, you would need to run an offline install.

Thank you.
I had found that chart and was able to perform the upgrade after changing the CentOS-Base.repo in /etc/yum.repos.d/ to point to centos-vault as follows.

I had been on 1.0 and had to upgrade because I broke the Operation Center component because it did not stop me from upgrading it to an incompatible version. I figured going forward was better than trying to revert the component upgrade.

Code: Select all

$ rcsdiff CentOS-Base.repo
