Hi I have had a problem with centreon updates for some time. My version is 24.10.8. The problem is in the vmware infrastructure monitoring plugin. Previously (based on the centreon_vmware.pm file) everything worked fine. After updates (from several versions within 24.10) the centreon_vmware service does not want to start. When I change the option to old in the /etc/default/centreon_vmware file and restore the centreon_vmware.pm file, everything returns to normal.Here is the configuration and logs after updates (the last one to 24.10.8), which do not work well.My instance: Centreon 24.10.8, Debian 12. $ ls -lrazem 44-rw-rw---- 1 www-data www-data 1287 2018-10-17 centreon.conf.php-rw-r----- 1 centreon centreon 390 06-24 08:25 centreontrapd.pm-rw-rw-r-- 1 centreon centreon 390 2024-05-16 centreontrapd.pm.dpkg-dist-rw-rw---- 1 centreon-gorgone centreon 626 06-24 08:24 centreon_vmware.json-rw-r--r-- 1 centreon centreon 812 03-28 09:37 centreon_vmware.pm

MAP - 22.04 Export/Import MapsNew

Implement the ability to export map's XML/JSON in version 24.10+, similar to Maps Legacy Destop Client.This could be used for map backups and to import maps into a remote server.It would be great if the Maps Extension had the "Display on Remote Server" feature, like the Business Activities extension from BAM. It would save work for those who have many maps and constantly make changes to add new services/hosts.There's already an API for this; I think it would be simple to implement in the maps-web interface.

centreon_storage folder full

I was trying to run updates on my Centreon VM this morning and it wasn’t able to download the updates. Check the disk size and I am seeing my dev/sda is full. Digging in further I found that the /var/lib/mysql/centreon_storage folder is using the vast majority of my disk space. After some googling I did find the retention settings and I change all of those values, but I assume there is a job that I need to run in order for it to go through and gracefully purge those older files? I found this referenced sudo -u centreon /opt/rh/rh-php72/root/usr/bin/php /usr/share/centreon/cron/centstorage_purge.php, but it did not work on my system. This is the OVA for Centreon that I am running on and I am currently on version 24.04.12. Any help would be appreciated on this.

Open Tickets module usage with Community Edition – UI access to Notifications > Rules?

Hello everyone,I would like to get an official clarification from the Centreon Community about the use of the Open Tickets module in the Community Edition.Context: We are using Centreon Community Edition 24.x, with the Open Tickets module installed from the community repository (centreon-open-tickets). The module appears as installed and enabled in Administration > Extensions > Modules. However, the Monitoring Connector Manager shows “License required”. We have double-checked our ACL configuration: the user is an Admin and all permissions are granted. In Notifications > Rules, the page is empty and I cannot add any rules. My question is:Is it possible to use the Open Tickets module with the full graphical interface (especially Notifications > Rules) in the Community Edition without an IT Edition license?Or is it confirmed that in the Community Edition, only the method using a Notification Command or Event Handler is supported, without the connector management UI?Any

Does anyone know how to create a graph (like the graph for the CPU, for example) for a service that is not native to Centreon?

Hello everyone,As the title says, I'd like to create a graphic for a service I've set up. I've created a service to find out the number of users connected to my RDS farm and I'd like to have a graph to see the evolution of connected users over time. A simple dot plot, say every 30 minutes.What I mean by a graph is like CPU, memory etc… : Do you know if this is possible or not?Thanks by advance.

HTTP Collection : parse headers values

Hi, Here’s the matter : to get metrics from an API one has first to request the “login” endpoint, providing user and password, to get back an authentication token (with a limite time validity). BUT this token is provided in the header “Authorization”, not in the json body of the response, and I didn’t manage to get it.Is there a way to extract values of the header ?Thx.
