Post Installation
Nagios host configuration files contain the check script definition which require passwords. Dell EMC Nagios 3.1 Plug-in provides a way in
which the passwords can be encrypted. The passphrase for the encryption is stored in a secure location with required permission to the
file. Following are the steps to create a file and a passphrase:
1. Create a Passphrase Resource file to store a passphrase for encryption and decryption.
2. Navigate to <NAGIOS_HOME>/etc/resource.cfg and define a macro $OMINAGIOSRESPATH$=<absolute path> in the
resource.cfg and provide the absolute path of the file created in step 1.
3. Restart the Nagios core services by running the following command:
service nagios restart
