We are making this decision to optimize the software and make it more intuitive.

VMWare 8 connector : First stone

Hello everyone, As part of our project to update our dedicated VMware connectors, we are deploying the foundation of the VMware 8 ESX monitoring connector via REST API this month. This connector is a lightweight version, as it only includes CPU, memory, power and host discovery modes. We have already planned to enhance this connector in the coming months with new modes. It is marked as experimental because, at this stage, we still need to verify its functionality with numerous metrics (as may be the case in certain production environments). Feel free to share your feedback on this and more generally on this connector here. We will keep you informed of progress on this subject.

SNClient+ : short review

Hello,I tried SNclient+ and I will share what I found with this short review.My thirst thought is that SNClient+ is mainly for Windows host.s Why ? Because I failed to installed it from Debian 5 to Debian 11 included. The Debian packages are broken on all theses releases, you can’t install it, it will throw an error.The answer from the team was if it’s not working you can try to recompile it from sources.It more sunny on the RedHat side because the RPM is valid (and tested) on RedHat 7 and 9 (I didn't test it on RH8).Also, only a unit for Systemd is included, no Init script.On the Windows side, it’s unclear on which version we could run it.I successfully run it on Windows 2019 but the SNClient+ team don’t give a list of supported OS :https://github.com/ConSol-Monitoring/snclient/issues/48

What Monitoring Connectors need a SNMP version 3 template?

Dear Watchers,As I said here, we experimented a new SNMP version 3 template for Linux.We are planning to add similar SNMP version 3 templates to other monitoring connectors to make it easier to use SNMP v3 (I agree it's not ideal to use the $_SERVICEEXTRAOPTION$ macro for that) in more contexts.What I'm proposing you here is to answer to my post by giving:The name of the monitoring connector or the host template you'd like to see support SNMP v3 macros. The desired security levels (noAuthNoPriv, authNoPriv, authPriv).Then we'll prioritize the posts that will receive the highest number of "thumbs up" to deliver new templates in the monitoring connectors.Can’t wait for your suggestions!PS: If what you want is a template that do not exist yet as a mo

openticket 25.10.1 and centreon 25.10.5

Hello,Before updating to 25.10.5, OpenTickets was working correctly.Since the update, I now get the following error message: "cannot find provider". In my rule, the connection test is OK.In the widget, I can also select the rule without any issue.Do you have any idea what could be causing this problem?I already tried to downgrade and re-upgrade the module: UPDATE modules_informations SET mod_release = '25.10.0' WHERE name = 'centreon-open-tickets'; Then I re-updated it using the orange update button, but the issue is still there.

Alert dependencies

Hello,We’re facing an issue on our side with Centreon.When a host stops responding or is powered off, we receive all alerts for every service in DOWN or UNKNOWN state, which amounts to around thirty emails per host.I would like to ensure that if a server no longer responds to ping, only that alert is sent to the team responsible for that host, and not the 30 other emails related to services that are no longer responding.Is there an easy mechanism to implement so that we no longer receive all service alerts when the host is not responding, and only get the notification that the host is unreachable?I have seen the “parent-child” dependency mechanism, but it has to be configured host by host, and I would like to implement this for several hundred servers.Thank you,Laurent

Can not delete/edit/create hosts/services/templates after Patch from 24.10.12 to 25.10.5

Hello everyone,I tried to update Centreon from version 24.10.12 to 25.10.5 yesterday. The update process worked as expected, but after the update, there were some unexpected issues.I could not delete hosts and services, could not create new templates, and could not edit existing templates. In some cases, Sometimes when saving it would just throw an empty page. I couldn't find any errors in the log files, and the UI did not throw any exceptions either. Cloning services, hosts, and templates works as expected.I was just wondering if this is a known bug that will be fixed in the next minor update or if this is an edge case.For testing, I disabled SELinux and removed any security-related, non-Centreon HTTPD configuration.Thanks in advance!
