Centreon Infra Monitoring

Hi,I finally get a window to upgrade Centreon from our current 22.10.11 to the last 22.10 (22.10.14 at this time).I should make this upgrade (along with numerous system package upgrade) on December Saturday the 2nd. I would validate the upgrade on the integration platform the week before. What I’d like to avoid is having a 22.10.15 version being released between the integration platform upgrade and when I do the production platform.With that in mind, I wonder if you’re able to give me some vision on when the next 22.10 release will be released.Notice : upgrading to 22.10.14 after a 22.10.15 has been released, while theoretically doable, seems quite hazardous because of how Centreon package dependencies work.

Wikipedia describes active monitoring like this: “In software design, web design, and electronic product design, synthetic monitoring (also known as active monitoring or proactive monitoring) is a monitoring technique that is done by using a simulation or scripted recordings of transactions. Behavioral scripts (or paths) are created to simulate an action or path that a customer or end user would take on a site, application, or other software (or even hardware). Those paths are then continuously monitored at specified intervals for performance, such as functionality, availability, and response time measures.”Is this possible in Centreon?

There is an SNMP-Trap-Service in Windows Server 2019. What do i need to do to use this in Centreon.Which MIB do I have to download?

Hi,I'm currently using Windows NRPE 0.5 to monitor Windows services with the following command:/usr/lib64/nagios/plugins/check_centreon_nrpe3 -H 192.168.X.X -p 5666 -t 30 -u -2 -P 8192 -c check_service -a "filter=start_type = 'auto' and is_trigger = 0 and name not like 'OneSyncSvc' and name not like 'WpnUserService' and name not like 'clr' and name not like 'CDPUserSvc' and name not like 'CDPSvc' and name not like 'GoogleUpdaterInternalService' and name not like 'GoogleUpdaterService'" "service=*" "exclude=clr_optimization" exclude=sppsvc exclude=TrustedInstaller exclude=TBS exclude="Sophos Clean Service" exclude="Sophos Safestore Service" exclude=SkypeUpdate exclude=MicroFocus-LicenseServer exclude=sppsvc exclude=OneSyncSvc_42be956af exclude=gupdate exclude=COMSysApp exclude=RemoteRegistry exclude=MapsBroker exclude=ShellHWDetection exclude=TrustedInstaller exclude=TBS exclude=WbioSrvc exclude=BITS exclude=tiledatamodelsvc exclude=edgeupdate exclude=GISvc exclude=clr_optimization_v4.0

The Nagios Reader Github has been archived this month, so evidently support and updates will no longer be available.I followed the guide athttps://docs.centreon.com/docs/migrate/nagios-to-centreon/The command - perl nagios_reader_to_centreon_clapi.pl --config /usr/local/nagios/etc/ > /tmp/centreon_clapi_import_commands.txt - executes successfully on my configuration directory without error but the generated clapi text file does not contain any details from my configuration. Our configuration has customized storage locations but follows the Nagios guide for nagios.cfg.I am not certain how to debug in order to get our extensive configuration exported so that we can try our Centreon. Overall spinning up the appliance and playing with the stock configuration is interested but if I can get my monitored hosts and services imported, that would be a far more impressive test.Thanks.

Bonjour,J’ai actuellement des modèles d’hôtes en place et lorsque je créer un nouvel hôte, différents services sont créés automatiquement, jusque là pas de problème.Lorsque mon service qui monitore une interface se créer, le champs --interface= est vide ce qui par défaut prend l’ensemble des interfaces.Un des plugins utilisé est par exemple centreon_plugins.pl --plugin=network::aruba::standard::snmp::pluginMa question est, comment puis-je faire en sorte que lorsque le champs est vide, j’ai une remonté UNKNOWN avec un message contextuel du type ‘pas d’interface spécifiée’ ?Merci d’avanceYohan

Hello,I’ve a problem with this plugin, only with interfaces 1/1, 1/2, 1/3 , 1/,4I only need to check 2/1/1 interface but it checked every interfaces with 1 in the endSame with 2/1/2 , 3, 4,…..  

Hello I m using Sonatype Nexus as yum proxy in my company.But I have got a problem to link it to centreon’s repositorys. I’ve got 500 error when downloading repomd.xml Errors during downloading metadata for repository 'PROXY_EL8_X86-64_centreon-23.04-stable':  - Status code: 500 for https://XXXXXXXXXXXXX/repository/PROXY_EL8_X86-64_centreon-23.04-stable/repodata/repomd.xml Is anyone that use nexus to do the same ?Is there some ting special to add in my config ?  Best regards 

Hi,I noticed some time ago that the Centreon UI is doing some requests to the WWW just to display the login page! Today I looked closer, hence this post.URL is https://cdn.eu.pendo.io/agent/static/'+apiKey+'/pendo.jsWhat is it for precisely? May it be disabled? What the consequences using Centreon with no web access or with this particular remote site blocked for any reason?Am I the only to find this kind of thing to be both a potential security hazard and a sure source of poor UI response time? And so being properly unacceptable as a mandatory or even default functionality?https://github.com/centreon/centreon/blob/22.10.x/centreon/www/front_src/src/App/initPendo.jsDoes somebody know if any serious fork of Centreon has been started by someone? The Centreon project is turning to real crapware. Can’t find a better word…And please, don’t complain again about me being agressive or disrespectful, because I’m not. I’m the first to be upset and impacted by what Centreon has become those last

Hi,I have the following error when I try to upgrade centreon 20.10 to 22.10.Here the following error: I already inserted the following request on centreon database:ALTER TABLE centreon.cfg_nagios ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC; ALTER TABLE centreon.contact ROW_FORMAT=DYNAMIC;I try to drop manually the column but the error is stil here.

Hello, as stated in the subject it seems getting parameters parameters for service when service name contains bracketsis not working ? When I do : centreon -u admin -p 'MYPASSWORD' -o SERVICE -a getparam -v 'MYHOST;Test_Service4;notes_url'I get : PHP Warning:  Undefined variable $paramString in /usr/share/centreon/www/class/centreon-clapi/centreonService.class.php on line 579notes_urlmynotesurltesttext So there is an error but I get the dataNow if I try with any other service with brackets in the name like this : centreon -u admin -p 'MYPASSWORD' -o SERVICE -a getparam -v 'MYHOST;[PRIO] Test Service5;notes_url'I get : Object not found:MYHOST/[PRIO] Test Service5 I tried a lot of things like using quotes, double-quotes, escape characters and so on and I could not get my results. And of course 90% of our services have brackets in their names… :-( using Centreon 23.04.0

Hello,I’m working on scripts to manage Centreon configuration externally using API/CLAPI interfaces.I’m facing a problem that I don’t know how to solve. When trying to add a macro to a service template, I have problems when macro value contaiuns ‘;’ character. Obviously ‘;’ character is used to separate fields in ‘-v’ option, so ‘centeeon’ gets confused and it does not set macro value correctly.Imagine a value that is ‘123;456’ (for example, in passwords).If I execute command: centreon -u user -p password -o STPL -a setmacro -v ‘TemplateName;MacroName;123;456’Macro value is set to ‘123’ (wrong value). Same happens using API v1.How can I ‘escape’ this ‘;’ character needed in my macro value? I imagine it happens in every object type and every action that uses values.How can I solve it?Thanks,Albert 

Hello,I'm new to Centreon and I'd like to install it on AHV nutanix.Has anyone ever done this ?Michel

Hello As a final user, I have some issues with the new view of the ressources status page. For context, we have tens of thousands of probes in centreon.  We also have some other scopes in our daily job. It means that a tech is not on centreon more than a week during is timetable. For exemple, he will be on centreon week 2 and again week 6, then week 10 etcJust saying that we can’t focus on centreon more than that due to our timetable.  One of the biggest use issue as a final user,  is that it was VERY useful to open a alarm (acknowledged or not) in a new tab to watch it evolve (ex : a probe that is monitoring a disk size) especially when you have dozens of alarms in the same time.Now we have to clic multiples time and copy paste the probe name in the same tool to find the probe in centreon.Pulling out this feature without offer another solution wasn’t great just because of minification. (but I’ve seen other post mention that so I won’t go further in explanation)  --As a average user, I

Hi everyone,I hope you're all doing well. I'm facing an issue with our database.Here's the situation:Recently, our database encountered a crash due to being full, and as a result, we lost some data.

Bonjour, J’ai installé Nagvis (1.9.35) sur mon Centreon (23.04) pour pouvoir afficher les hôtes sur une carte mais quand je veux rajouter un hôte sur une carte avec le backend Centreon j’ai une erreur de socket comme quoi il n’arrive pas à le lire.Alors que dans les paramètres de Centreon Broker je ne vois pas de paramètres en input qui pourrais bloquer la lecture.J’ai fouillé les fichiers de config, j’ai essayé d’activer TLS mais sans succès (j’avais une erreur tls donc je l’ai désactiver) et j’ai comparé par rapport à une installation que j’ai avec shinken mais je ne vois pas de changement particuliers à pars le port qui est différent pour le backend. Merci par avance

I have migrated from centos to debian. On centos i was using the Disk-Generic-Name template and now i have this graphics on debian: I have deleted the service and recreate it with the Disk-Global template and now its ok.I have edited the template of the services and rebuild the graph database is still not displayed correctly.Is there any way to erase and recreate the disks services in all hosts without doing it one by one?Thanks,

Hi,I have a problem with my Centreon 23.10.3 (appliance).If I install Virt-VMWare2-ESX, the corresponding templates doesn’t appear in Templates pull-down list during host configuration, though it appears in the menu Hosts/Templates!It works for other monitoring connectors like  OS-Windows-SNMP-custom but not for Virt-VMWare2-ESX.I already updated the system as I saw it solved the problem for another user.How can I troubleshoot this problem ?Regards,Olivier

Centreon Version : 20.04 Symptoms :After several month working as wanted, we experience a strange issue.Alerts are correctly created through smnptrap and appear during few minutes in slots.Then Slot return to OK status without any action, acknowledge or such. Debug actions :In a first debug search, active checks are effectively disabled, freshness is set at template level at 86400 sec (1day). Log seems not to mention any manually force Ok by exploitation team.Reviewing all the installation procedure and screenshot I took during initial configuration, no changes seems to have been applied.Simulating a smnptrap through dsmclient.pl script react as wanted, get a slot and create the alert, but disappear few minutes after been created. Does any one have experienced this kind of behavior ? If any idea where to search more ?? Thx.

Hello,As part of a Debian to Redhat migration project, I'm currently installing a new Centreon server running RedHat Enterprise 9.I have exported my Debian Centreon configuration via a clapi command.When I want to import the configuration on my new Redhat server, here's what I get: The import starts well, then suddenly stops with these messages.PS: Object already exist is normal because I've run several import tests. I have no php skills, could someone please help me solve this problem?
