Nagios Support Forum

Hello,

I have an implementation question if anyone has done it in the past or is familiar with it, is it an easy task to migrate MOD-GEARMANS from a Nagios Core implementation to a Nagios xi? Is it a matter of changing the IP on the GEARMAN to point to the new xi server? Any considerations?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

While we do not have a published doc on the process, this should be relatively easy to do. Do you know what version you are currently using? You may have to upgrade the remote workers, but you'll want to 'point' the existing workers to the new xi installation. There is a setting in the worker.conf file to do this.

# sets the addess of your gearman job server. Can be specified
# more than once to add more server.
server=<IP address>:4730

Here's our general guide for installing/upgrading Mod Gearman.

Let us know if you have more questions.
