Hello @perryell

Thanks for reaching out, ran through the install on my test VM and we see that it is reporting the log events to: '/usr/local/nagiosxi/var/cmdsubsys.log'

A quick overview by: (a good summary on where it is logging)

Code: Select all

grep -Eir 'dell|emc|wizard' /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/* --color=always | less -SR
Then lets take a deeper view:

Code: Select all

cat /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/cmdsubsys.log | grep -Ei 'error|warn|fail|dell_emc|dell|emc'  --color=always -A 10000 -B 10000 | less -SR
Attached are the results from my test VM component install.

what does your environment look like:

Code: Select all

cat /usr/local/nagiosxi/var/xiversion | grep full
sudo cat /etc/os-release
 sudo uname -a
sudo hostnamectl
 sudo lsb_release -a
php -v
php -r 'phpinfo();'
yum repolist
To send us your system profile.
  • Login to the Nagios xi GUI using a web browser.
  • Click the "Admin" > "System Profile" Menu
  • Click the "Download Profile" button
  • Save the profile.zip file and share
From what we can tell from the installation instructionsinstallation instructions[/url], we are not sure how up-to-date to match compatibility with the most recent version as it states here that the last tested Nagiosxi versions are 5.6.x. We will be able to provide an overview and some troubleshooting guidance going forward.

Thanks,
Perry
