Hi all,
unfortunately one of my colleagues has made a mess with Core config manager and we had to restore Nagios.
We’re using automysqlbackup and autopostgresbackup to backup Nagios every day.
I had no problems to restore database NagiosQL and dabatabase Nagios using mysql console.

mysql –p –u root –h localhost nagios < …..file.sql
mysql –p –u root –h localhost nagiosql < ….fileql.sql

I received errors instead when I tried to restore postgresql, why??

Thanks in advance

Just as a heads up, there is a backup script for XI located at:

Code: Select all

/usr/local/nagiosxi/scripts/backup_xi.sh

Did you also backup the nagiosxi database?

i use only automysqlbackup and autopostgresbackup and restore with procedure on the pdf of nagios xi

* first restore nagios db
* second restore nagiosql db
* third restore postgres

For such things we recommend reverting to a previous snapshot if one is available rather than making a complete database backup and trying to restore it to the same Nagios XI server. You can access Configuration Snapshots and the revision tool at:

Configure > Core Config Manager > Configuration Snapshots.

OR: Admin > Configuration Snapshots.

And simply click the green arrow icon next to the latest good snapshot. Is this something that will work for you?

If you do not wish to use the supported backup and restore options, all I can do is refer you to the postgresql documentation:
