Centreon Infra Monitoring

Hi everyone. “The man who asks a question is a fool for a minute, the man who does not ask is a fool for life.”― ConfuciusHow to effectively disable "performance data" for services? I have the Centreon 21.10.3 and can not find it in the settings. 

Hello,I am monitoring a Windows server with NSClient++ RestAPI, and the "Services-Auto" service reports: GoogleUpdaterInternalService124.0.6337.0=stopped (auto), GoogleUpdaterService124.0.6337.0=stopped (auto)I want to exclude them, but the issue is that each time they are updated, the version number increases, and the name changes.I tried to make an exclusion with a wildcard based on what I found here and there, but it doesn't work.Is it possible to make an exclusion with a wildcard? If so, what is the correct syntax?Thanks in advance.

Hello TeamI want to exlude some services with startup type Automatic on Windows Server from being monitored. I understand that it should be done in service Services-Auto. Then i should add New entries in ‘Service check options’ named EXCLUDE, EXCLUDE2, EXCLUDE3 and in the value field windows service name?Is it correct configured on above screeshot? Thanks for reply.

I’m trying to use host discovery as per:  https://docs.centreon.com/docs/monitoring/discovery/hosts-discovery/(with the Generic SNMP host discovery provider) Unfortunately, neither “execute immediately” nor scheduled jobs seem to ever progress from ‘scheduled’ to ‘running’ - the host discovery UI has them indefinitely stuck at ‘scheduled’, 0s duration, 0 hosts discovered, “execute now” and “show results” greyed out.What could I be missing?

Hey there!when I try to install a new central server with an extra db server I get the following errors when I try to install the central-server:Installation in a debian 11 fails - with the following errors:WARNING: Failed to generate ConfigBuilder for extension Symfony\Bundle\FrameworkBundle\DependencyInjection\FrameworkExtension. {"exception":"[object] (Symfony\\Component\\DependencyInjection\\Exception\\EnvNotFoundException(code: 0): Environment variable not found: \"hostCentreon\". at /usr/share/centreon/vendor/symfony/dependency-injection/EnvVarProcessor.php:172)","extensionClass":"Symfony\\Bundle\\FrameworkBundle\\DependencyInjection\\FrameworkExtension"}WARNING: Failed to generate ConfigBuilder for extension FOS\RestBundle\DependencyInjection\FOSRestExtension. {"exception":"[object] (Symfony\\Component\\DependencyInjection\\Exception\\EnvNotFoundException(code: 0): Environment variable not found: \"hostCentreon\". at /usr/share/centreon/vendor/symfony/dependency-injection/EnvVar

Hi all, i have a problem with ldap groups: i imported a ldap group in centreon but none of the users belonging that group can access. I disabled the auto import users  because i thought it would be sufficient the group import. i followed this post but i cannot make it work. someone has this problem? 

Hello, we have 2 discovery jobs running:one VMWare VM one SNMP agent the same windows VM shows as “server.domain.local” through SNMP discovery (because it is joined in AD domain), and as “server” through VM discovery (the name of the VM object in vcenter). The Centreon then cannot see the 2 objects as the same one. Is there a way in the mappers rules to, either remove the domain in SNMP job, or add it in the VM job, so we can automatically consolidate the 2 entries? i hope it is clear :) sincerely,

Hello,I am noticing that now centreon only sends an email alert once, before it sent an email alert every half an hour. We haven't made any changes to our checks, is this a new centreon behaviour?if you check the web the error is there but the alert is sent only once.Thanks,

Bonjour, J’ai cette erreur quand j’essaye de faire la mise à jour.Est-ce que vous avez une solution?NB: je suis sous debian11

I’m just getting familiar with Centreon.I started by adding a couple of server-type hosts from our infrastructure, and put together some monitoring for them using the service scan function. That works great and gives me a very convenient resource overview. (All SNMP-based for now.)Now, I’d like to do a similar thing with the client machines on the network - to be able to see disk space getting low, VMs burning CPU/memory while idling, stuff like that.I’ve added one such client host as a starting point, and again used the scan function to add the 10 or so services I’m interested in.Now, my question is, how do I create templates from those 10 scanned services, so I can put them together into a host template and ideally auto-discover my range of 35+ client machines and have the same service monitors applied?I.e., is there a “template from existing service” function that copies over all the service’s configuration values?

Hi everybody,I’m trying hard to make a threshold working in my service template without any success…Everything is ok from CLI:/centreon_aws_cloudwatchlogs_api.pl --plugin=cloud::aws::cloudwatchlogs::plugin --mode=get-logs --custommode='awscli' […….]  --critical-status='%{message} =~ /error/i' But from gui, the Threshold is not valid :CRITICALSTATUS = %{message\} =~ /error/iI tried to put \\ before every special character (\\%\\{message\\} \\=\\~ \\/error\\/i), but the problem persists… Does anyone has an idea ?Thank you for your help.Kind regards,Alexandre

Hello(edit, I made a mistake in the title, i’m upgrading from 22.04, not 21.10, but it is the same question)I’d like to upgrade centreon 22.04 on Centos7 to Alma9 and 23.04my setup is a central with local DB, which I plan to change to an independant DBI’m planning these steps :upgrade the current centos7 to the latest supported centreon 22.10 upgrade all the pollers to 22.10 install a new Alma 9 infrastructure, with an separate mariadb server and try to migrate...here is theproblem that I realized when I was planning the process :the alma 9 apparently only support 23.04, and does not support 22.10. so how do I do the jump from 22.10 to 23.04?do I need to plan a intermediate step with alma8, which is compatible with both 22.10 and 23.04 I could install the DB on an separate Alma 9, and split the databse from the master during the switchover to alma8, but I fear this step may be a bit complicated, maybe I should split the role now while I’m on centos 7 the ideal solution for me would be

Hi everyone,I am asked to monitor some of our divices within Centreon.Some templates are already used, so I was asked to edit a script for gatheing some Data.We are in an SCCM Iinfrastructure, we have some Distribution Points and some PCs configured as Peer Cache.So, for those PCs, I want to monitor some of theire characteristics. I can’t use SNMP on the PCs because it is deprecated and is no more available within Windows 10 OS.Microsoft advise is to use the CIM model.I have the request for the data I want to gather:$namespace = "ROOT\ccm\Policy\Machine\ActualConfig"$classname = "CCM_SuperPeerClientConfig" $SPCParameters = Get-WmiObject -Class $classname -ComputerName $computer -Namespace $namespace | Select-Object CanBeSuperPeer, HttpsEnabled$SPCParameters.CanBeSuperPeer$SPCParameters.HttpsEnabled if(($SPCParameters.CanBeSuperPeer -eq $true) -and ($SPCParameters.HttpsEnabled -eq $true)){    # Rien à faire, tout est ok}else{    Write-Host "Vérifier la présence du " $computer "dans la c

Hi,Is there a way to use the logical operators “negation” and “or”. For example : All the services for a hostgroup but without the services from another hostgroup?Like, I want the services from groupA but not from groupB.

Hi,We use LDAP account and this warning makes no sens whatsoever : Both 22.10.11 and 22.10.15 (at least) are concerned. 

Hello Community, I hope you all are doing well.I followed the instructions to install a remote server from the link : installation-of-a-remote-server.In the 5 step when executing the command :/usr/share/centreon/bin/registerServerTopology.sh -u <API_ACCOUNT> \-t remote -h <IP_TARGET_NODE> -n <REMOTE_NAME>I get the following error that i did not find in the Main error messages from the installation link :- ERROR - 192.168.56.13: {"code":500,"message":"Error from Central's register API : The platform: 'remote1'@'192.168.56.13' cannot be added to the Central linked to this Remote \/ Central's response => Code : No parent platform was found for : 'remote1'@'192.168.56.13'"}Both my central server and the remote are on the same network. I’m using Centreon v22.04 on both servers. I’m working on CentOS 7.I tried to find a solution in the forum but nothing worked for me. Do you know what I could do to solve this issue ?Thank you.

 Hi Guys,I would like to have your opinion about Centreon. I plan to install the 23.10 version (Community edition) but I am undecided between Alma 8 or 9.In the long term, which of these is the best to use (more popular, stable, fewer bugs, available packages, recommended by Centreon)?Your answer will be appreciated!Thanks in advance.

Hi,I’ve been asked by a user what this new icon, if it has a particular meaning:  The service has no Note URL defined, but its parent template has. could it be the reason for the presence of this icon?(Centreon Web 22.10.15) 

Dear Centreon Support Team,I hope this email finds you well. I am currently working on integrating Centreon into our system, specifically focusing on notification settings. However, upon enabling notifications either at the host level or within user settings, I have observed a significant influx of continuous requests from the Centreon servers.I would appreciate your guidance on how to effectively control and manage the frequency of these requests to ensure a smoother integration process. Your prompt assistance in resolving this matter is highly valued.Thank you in advance for your support.
