NagVis install script out of date

Post by tonyyarusso »

The script referenced in the NagVis integration documentation still installs version 1.5.9, whereas the current release is 1.7.5.
The process of installing NagVis to a Nagios XI system can be automated with a script that can be downloaded from:
http://assets.nagios.com/downloads/nagi ... -Nagvis.sh
You'll need to change at a minimum these two lines, and then anything else necessary to deal with feature changes in the upstream changelogs.

Code: Select all

NAGVIS_VER="1.5.9"
wget -qc "http://sourceforge.net/projects/nagvis/files/NagVis%201.5/nagvis-$NAGVIS_VER.tar.gz/download"
It does appear that the NagVis project now supports a "latest" link, so you won't have to do this for each release in the future.

Thanks Tony.

While we are aware that there are newer versions of Nagvis available and the change in the install script is minimal, we had found some incompatibilities in a couple previous version and had stayed with the stable 1.5.9 until we have tested future releases.

I have added it to our todo to test some of the newer versions to see if it is compatible with all browser versions
