Custom plugin works on terminal but not from Web site

Hello,I am developing a plugin to retrieve the information provided by openitCockpit.I started with a plugin allowing me to retrieve the load percentage of each processor.From the command line, it works correctly but from the web interface, I get an error (Execute command failed).When I copy the command from the interface to the terminal, it works, so the command is good.I added the plugin path (/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/centreon-plugins/src) to the white list in the file /etc/centreon-gorgone/config.d/whitelist.conf.d/custom.yaml as follows: - ^/usr/lib/nagios/plugins/centreon-plugins/src/.*$I can't find anything in the logs and I don't know what else to do to make it work.Centreon is running on a Debian Bullseye and is on version 24.04.4

Nas Asustor supervision

Hello,  I’m trying to input My ASUSTOR NAS in my centreon supervision.I found OID’s and extract it with an utility software.Now, i would like to create my different commands (storage etc...) in centreon, like for my ups’s but  it’s not exactly the same I guess. I don’t know very well what argument i have to put etc... I precise that i’ve not the associated connector, so i would like to create it from start to end. My host is created, my service too, but i would like to bind it with my commands.I hope i’ve been as clear as possible, i’m an “advanced” beginner in centreon, snmp etc….So some things are trouble for me actually. It would be helpful to have an answer.I’m french so you can answer in french.Thanx a lot for help. here is the capture of my command.

widgets for dashboard or for personal views ?

 I had the ambition to develop a small widget for Centreon but with the arrival of version 22.04 I am lost because we have two types of widgets, those for the dashboard (new) and those for personalized views (old). There is a link for the “old” widgets https://docs.centreon.com/fr/docs/22.04/developer/developer-widget/is there a link for "new widgets"?I do not necessarily want to invest and develop on a method potentially abandoned by centreon

German translation for Centreon

Hello everyone!I’ve recently started translating the Centreon project into the german language. As I’m sure that there’ll be quite a few questions that’ll come up in the process, I am creating this topic.In this topic, I’ll briefly describe the process of how I’m approaching the translation. Additionally, I will describe problems or questions that I’ve encountered. ApproachMy approach is relatively simple to summarize: So far, I’ve simply followed the dev guide on how to translate the Centreon project. I’m currently using POEdit for the translation. ProblemsThis section summarizes problems I’ve encountered during the translation process. Let’s hope that this section stays small in size :PThe link to the translation environment archive in the documentation no longer seems to work. Kriko kindly provided me a working link. QuestionsThis section lists questions that I had/have while translating. I hope the “Conversation” topic type is still correct.Should brand or component names be transl

How to code multiple thresholds --warning-* and --critical-* in a plugin?

HelloThis question is probably for someone who know how the whole centreon plugin works, probably someone from centreon I’m working on a plugin for a SAN appliance with Rest, I did all the groundwork, followed the guidelines etc.. and I’m now tying up all the command line parameters and trying to have “correct” plugin in practice I managed to get my data selection working, and for example I use this in the loop for “manage_selection” $self->{filesystem}->{ $filesystem->{'NAME'} } = { name => $filesystem->{'NAME'}, storage_pool => $filesystem->{'PARENTNAME'}, space => { total_space => $total, used_space => $used, free_space => $free, prot_space => $prot, prct_used_space => $prct }I have a custom “space usage output” and some standard long output/prefix outputsub custom_space_usage_output { my ($sel

SERVICE STATE is not OK

Good morning, I am monitoring several Windows services with "centreon_windows_snmp.pl". It works fine with the following argument and service name, for example: --service='dcsx'. My question is: why does it show services in critical state if they are running? I have tested with the "Print Spooler" service and it works fine. I have also tested with the DataCore Executive service and even though it is running, it appears as critical. All of this with the same configuration and host.      King regards.

HelloI launched myself in the full rebuild of an snmp plugin for huawei dorado (san storage) by using Rest API.I did this because I added a “lun” mode to the existing snmp plugin, but as it happens, if you have too many luns the snmp is getting lots timeout, the table is huge and when go over 50 lun/snapshot the plugin never give the information back… after a bit of digging, I found there is a Restful api, and lot more digging I managed to create my own custom api I have an issue with the thing I coded, I cannot get critical or warning alerts when I use for example “--critical-usage-prct=50” on the perfdatahere is the plugin, work in progress : centreon-plugins/luns.pm at master · christophe-activiumid/centreon-plugins (github.com) (btw, anyone feel free to test it in command line if you have a dorado, it needs a read only account, and work for dorado v6 and v5)everything work fine, except threshold...I do need to implement a cache/statefile on this specific lun mode because with the a

This is also possible with CentCTL under Windows.Multiple output formats are also available like CSV, YAML or JSon.You can download the Opensource version at https://github.com/YPSI-SAS/centctlPlease don't hesitate to send us feedback of your Cent
