Hello, We are trying to implement nav as our monitoring system but got into a problem that nav does not have the device types we are using example (Mikrotik ccr series routers) as a result the port details are not shown . We also have other vendor devices which is not listed so could you please suggest us on this. Thanks, Sauraj

nav upgrade fails due to systemd dependency
by Kadlecsik József 16 Des '16

16 Des '16

Hi, When upgrading to nav 4.6 on Debian jessie the upgrade fails on non-systemd variants of jessie. The nav.postinst script should check whether it's running on a systemd or sysv-init based system.

Update device name
by Orzakiewicz Cedric 06 Des '16

06 Des '16

Hi, I am running NAV 4.6.0 I successfully added some devices. Then I noticed that they had no name, only their IP as device name. So I added the corresponding entries to my DNS server. Unfortunately, NAV has kept the IP as name and does not update the device name field automatically. Can anyone help me on this issue ? Thank you.

NAV Migration
by a.anderson＠tees.ac.uk 24 Nov '16

24 Nov '16

Hi We recently upgraded from 4.4.3 to 4.5.3 by building a new server with the supplied ovf file, and migrated the database using the procedure referenced in the following link. https://nav.uninett.no/doc/4.5/howto/migrate-data.html The cli command we used to restore used the --drop-database --create --restore switches on the new server. We now not the directory structure seems for the cam, arp folders is now / api/1/arp, whereas on the 4.4.3 box it was /api/arp. Is this due to the restore method we have used or has the directory structure changed Many thanks

Upgrade Debian and NAV from 4.4.4 to latest
by Espen Lorentzen 23 Nov '16

23 Nov '16

Hi, we are running NAV 4.4.4 on a dedicated Debian Wheezy box with backports enabled. AFAIK we have to upgrade Debian from Wheezy to Jessie to get the latest NAV release. Can I just replace wheezy to jessie in sources.list and nav.list and do an upgrade/dist-upgrade? -- MVH / REGARDS: Espen Lorentzen esplor(a)gmail.com
