I've been running this rpm in production for at least a month now.

This is the spec file:
http://www.sunnmore.net/div/nagios.spec

This is the source rpm:
http://www.sunnmore.net/div/nagios-3.0.3-1.src.rpm


Looking at the spec file, it isnt clear to me why there is an initrd
patch for nagios? Could you please shed a little more light on that for
me, please?


These changes were carried on from the existing spec-file. The initrd
patch is for the initscript.


The diff between my nagios.spec and the existing nagios-2.12-3 is here:

Thanks, the diff is what i was looking for. And the initrd naming convention threw me off as its not really related to initrd, but an init script

Wrong way around I think ?

Package nagios-3.x.x and nagios-compat-

That way we end up in future with sensible package names and it follows the
standard style

Yes, that's what we're going to do. We're going to drop Nagios 2.x altogether for Fedora only (EPEL will remain at 2.x for now) so the nagios packages themselves will not change and the standard style remains.

I am waiting for the release of the fedora Nagios v3 package and was

wondering if I could get involved to help speed up the process?

I've packaged Nagios 3 for my self and contacted Shawn Starr and asked
if he was interested in the updates to the existing package. He replied
that it wasn't interesting before the nagios 2 line was killed off.

So, it seems like fedora has been debianized


But you can submit a package called nagios3 and when there will be no
conflicts with nagios then Fedora will have both.




It amuses me that, for whatever reason, none of you have bothered to
contact me about it and instead went to a list that already gets way to
much traffic. My email address is: mmcgrath@fedoraproject.org

If you're interested in getting nagios 3 ready and into Fedora, I could
certainly use help with that.


Hi,
I will register a bugzilla in a couple of hours with a upgrade request.
The changes required to upgrade to Nagios 3 isn't all that big spec
wise. There are some changes to the config format, so people should be
aware when upgrading.


Does/will Nagios3 provide some config file migration tool to ease the
pain for folks who want to migrate from v2 to v3? Or are the changes
simple enough to perform by hand, even for large Nagios installations?

The migration from v2 to v3 is simple.
Nagios is pretty good at maintaining backwards compatibility and moving
options/settings into a deprecated state to give people time to migrate.

Most of the changes will not affect most people at all.

Refer http://nagios.sourceforge.net/docs/3_0/upgrading.html#nagios2x

Default Packaging of Nagios

Hi,

I have working packages for Nagios 3.0.3 and Nagios PlugIns 1.4.12.

I nearly finished with pnp4nagios, check-multi and nagvis.

I already have a package for pnp4nagios, it's awaiting a good willing
reviewer.

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=442342

There is also DNX by a not-yet-sponsored packager awaiting for review.
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=441570

And iirc, there are a few other nagios related packages in the review
queue. A quick search found only
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=446847 but there are
possibly more.


Regards,
Xavier

I can test these RPMs if I can get them from somewhere
