Project Notes
I only added the lines for doing a new installation of Nagios. You can also use this to do a uninstall of Nagios and opt out of a new install. I have only tested it on Centos6 I STRONGLY SUGGEST THAT YOU VIEW THE SCRIPT AND VERIFY WHAT WILL BE WIPED OUT. ================================== !! DESTRUCTIVE UNINSTALL NOTICE !! ================================== WARNING: This script will uninstall Nagios MySql Postgresql from this system as well as all data associated with these services. This action is irreversible and will result in the removal of all Nagios databases, configuration files,log files, and services.

Worked Well
by Aaron25, February 28, 2015
Used the script to correct a flawed Nagios XI install and it worked out very well. If after an upgrade Nagios is complaining about missing line in host services and you can't get it cleared up a uninstall/reinstall might be what you need.

Thank you for the work on the script, it saved me a OS re-installation.
