I am on a new project to upgrade our current version of Zenoss 3.2.1, & the operating system RHEL 5 to 4.2.3 & RHEL 6 respectively on a new vm using
vmware. I am new to this at every level. I didn't know whether it was better or even possible to upgrade in place from 3.2.1 to 4.2.3 and then try upgrading to
RHEL 6 or to just build a new vm with the later upgrades of each. Well, I have decided to first build the new vm with RHEL 6 & I have installed 4.2.3. However,
my first problem is that when I run a service zenoss status, I get the following error: ZENHOME not set. You must run this script as the zenoss user. So my
first questions to that is with the RPM install, does the zenoss user get setup automatically and if so, what default password is it given. The 2nd problem is that
I can't get to the web interface (8080). In addition, non of the Daemons are running by default. I also wonder, when I do get this up and running, if i'll be able to
migrate the 3.2.1 database to this new version. Any feedback/comments would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Paul
