pnp4nagios 0.6

Post by Gavin »

Just wondering - can pnp4nagios 0.6 be safely installed on Nagios XI? If not, do you have any plans to upgrade from 0.4 to 0.6?

The web interface for pnp4nagios 0.6 looks useful.

Thanks,

Gavin

No. pnp4nagios is included with XI. Installing it on top on of the current installation will break perfdata graphing.

Just to clarify on this, there are users that have done it, but currently we don't support it. It requires compiling it from source and passing it several compile options in order to have the correct directory locations for all of the files. Compiling with the default options will definitely break XI's performance graphing. The perfdata engine is actually pnp 0.6, but the UI is still 0.4 that ships with XI.
