alias and agent name problem during db update from Pandora FMS 6 TO 7
Dear comunity,
i just installed a fresh “Pandora FMS v7.0NG.754 – Build 200603 – MR 44”.Then i imported old db from version 6 in mysql and executed the script in “/var/www/html/pandora_console/extras/pandoradb_migrate_6.0_to_7.0.mysql.sql”
to upgraded it.The issue is:
When i log in pandora web console and i go in manage agent, some agents alias and name value are represented by strange alpha numeric values like
013a7c0d3e7237c752f269cfea81095eef65c404478b…….cb68c88532766
Why? Maybe something goes wrong during the db update?

Hello,
From version 6 to 7 there were some important changes such as the inclusion of a field “agent_alias” which is the name with which the agents are identified more easily in the console. I suspect that the problem is that not having this field configured, the agents are shown with the “agent_name”, which by default is a random hash. My advice is to configure this field in the agents that you see that have a hash by name.
Besides this I have to warn you that the MR of your machine is not up to date, because the MR that you should have in the 754 version is the MR 46, so it could happen that you have some other problems in several sections of Pandora FMS. I recommend you to update this as soon as possible.
