Nagios : SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS FOR NAGIOS INSTALLATION
Our company has hosted a dedicated server under the “Cloud computing” in a private network area. My, task is to install “Nagios” in the server. I wanna know the system requirements to proceed further. Please give me the exact details. I’m very much tried in searching these information.
Solution: These are the exact nagios requirement. If your server has these minimum requirements you can proceed installing your nagios in your server.
SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS FOR NAGIOS:
1) The only requirement of running Nagios is a machine running Linux
(or UNIX variant) or Windows and a C compiler.We will probably also
want to have TCP/IP configured, as most service checks will be
performed over the network.
2) A web server (preferrably Apache)
3) PHP
4)GD developmemnt library version 1.6.3 or higher (required by the
statusmap and trends CGIs)
