Centreon Infra Monitoring

Vulnerability Management: What if Centreon could track your CVEs in real-time?

Hello Watchers!At Centreon, we are constantly exploring new ways to make your IT operations smoother and more insightful. Today, we’re looking into a strategic topic and we’d love to get your thoughts: The convergence of Monitoring and Cybersecurity.Since Centreon already monitors your assets (OS, web servers, databases, networking gear) and often knows their versions, we are considering an integration that crosses this data with real-time CVE (Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures) databases.The vision: A new security bulletin is released, and Centreon immediately flags the 15 servers in your infrastructure that are at risk—without you needing to trigger a manual scan.Before we dive deeper into this feature, we want to hear about your current reality:How do you manage vulnerabilities today? Do you use dedicated tools or is it a more manual process?

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.

BBDO2 Deprecation with Centreon 25.10 ReleaseFeature Sunset

We wish to inform all users that BBDO2 will be officially deprecated with the 25.10 release of Centreon. This change is part of our ongoing effort to enhance the platform’s performance, security, and compatibility with modern infrastructure requirements. What is BBDO?

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 and macro

Bonjour,Je cherche à ouvrir des tickets dans mon ITSM (EasyVista) via OpenTicket, mais je rencontre une difficulté avec les macros.Je souhaite passer en paramètre le Catalogue GUID stocké dans la macro EVSM_CATALOG_ID située dans les modèles (templates) de mes services. Lorsque je renseigne le GUID directement dans la règle de notification (champ Catalog GUID), cela fonctionne. En revanche, si j'utilise la variable {$service.custom_variables.EVSM_CATALOG_ID}, la transmission échoue.

Graph date picker broken

Hello, Since the update from 24.10.15 to 24.10.18, the graph date picker is broken on our instance.Quick time ranges like “Last 3 hours” are working normally but if we want to zoom on a graph or set a manual time range, it fails 100%. The issue comes from the Javascript not selecting the right start/end date for the API call. In browser console we’ve got messages like :moment-timezone-with-data.min.js:1 Moment Timezone has no data for 2026-02-03 09:48.
