SNMP Traps Config

Hi,I’m trying to configure SNMP Traps on my Centreon servers, I have one Central and one Poller which are correctly working as active monitoring servers.When I take a look at the config files:Central (/etc/centreon/centreontrapd.pm)our %centreontrapd_config = (        # databases credentials        centreon_db => "dbname=/etc/snmp/centreon_traps/centreontrapd.sdb",        centstorage_db => "dbname=/etc/snmp/centreon_traps/centreontrapd.sdb",        db_type => 'SQLite',        # server type (0: central, 1: poller)        mode => 0        # spool directory        spool_directory => '/var/spool/centreontrapd/',);1;Central (/etc/centreon/conf.pm)$centreon_config = {       VarLib => "/var/lib/centreon",       CentreonDir => "/usr/share/centreon/",       CacheDir => "/var/cache/centreon/",       "centreon_db" => "centreon",       "centstorage_db" => "centreon_storage",       "db_host" => "localhost:3306",       "db_user" => "centreon",       "db_passwd" =&

[network::extreme::snmp::plugin] -- mode=hardware ALL 0 components are ok [ ]

Hey, I recently installed centreon to monitor my extreme network switches but the centreon-plugins doesn’t work well. In this example, the hardware-global service checks 0 components while there is of course, more than 0 components.When I enter the command by hand (./centreon_extreme.pl --plugin=network::extreme::snmp::plugin:: --mode=hardware --hostname=ipAddress --snmp-version=2c --snmp-community=’roCommunity’ --component=’.*’ --verbose), it returns the following result :“OK: All 0 components are ok [ ].Checking fansChecking power suppliesChecking slotsChecking temperatureChecking poes”And yes that’s all I get. No error message or anything else. I can’t find the documentation for extreme networks with centreon-plugins. Can anyone tell me if I’m doing something wrong and if I am, how can I fix it ?

HTTP Collection mode - dealing with boolean values

Hello,I’m currently playing around with the collection mode for HTTP, to query some JSON Data. The JSON-Data includes boolean values which I want to use insight a count function for filtering elements on a selection. But it seems, that in this case, the boolean value is still something like ‘JSON::PP::Boolean=SCALAR(0x56146594f0d0)’ which I can not use in the filter for the count function.JSON is like that:{ "bindingName": "zway", "creationTime": 1694179518, "creatorId": 1, "customIcons": {}, "deviceType": "switchMultilevel", "firmware": "5.1", "h": 128847420, "hasHistory": false, "id": "ZWayVDev_xxxx", "location": 3, "locationName": "xxxxx", "manufacturer": "Fibaro", "metrics": { "icon": "blinds", "isFailed": false, "title": "xxxxx", "level": 99 },}I want to count all devices, which are in failed state (metrics.isFailed = true), but I’m not able to get

Utilisation des icones pour contrôle des URL

Bonjour,Avant ma question un peu (beaucoup ?) de mise en contexte.Dans le cadre de mon travail, j’ai dépoussiéré notre vieux Centreon (version 2.8.32) en y réalisant une petite mise à jour de la documentation à notre disposition pour faciliter la création de ticket et/ou la résolution des incidents.Pour cela, j’ai renseigné au maximum les champs personnalisés URL et URL d’action (notes_url et action_url); Cependant, à cause de certaines particularités de la configuration, ces champs ont été remplis soit dans la config des services directement soit dans la config des modèles associés.Mon projet actuel est de mettre en place un contrôle de Centreon permettant de déterminer si un service possède, à minima, une URL lui étant associé.La seule donnée identique (en tout cas visuellement), quelque soit la configuration des URL, est la présence des icônes :link.png quand Centreon repère une URL (notes_url) dans l’arborescence star-full.png quand Centreon repère une URL d’action (action_url) dan

Alternative to SNMP ?

Hi All,Using Centreon for monitoring via SNMP and which works great… I have a small number of newly built Windows 10 LTSC devices which just won’t take the optional feature of SNMP, just won’t install after spending a day trying via different methods…. I wonder if anyone can advise on an alternative method, either a 3rd party SNMP Agent or via a different configuration within Centreon?Appreciate any responses!Thank you!

Check only up interfaces

Hello!i’m using “network::cisco::standard::snmp::plugin” plugin to monitor various performance metrics of my cisco switches.By default it checks all interfaces and i would like to filter out some of the less usefull interfaces, for example i would like to filter out all the interfaces that are in a down state (disconnetcted state, as the switch says).From the --help command i’ve noticed a couple of options that could help me:--check-metrics            If the expression is true, metrics are checked (Default:            '%{opstatus} eq "up"').This seems to be the options that i’m looking for but it does not seem to work as i expected, it looks like all the perfomance data are still showing up and it is instead simply not triggering any thresholds for these interfaces.--filter-perfdata-advThis flter could work by filtering all the interfaces that have 0 as traffic, however in some cases some interfaces are not down and but still making 0 traffic and this could be a problem.What do you thi

DSM - Alerts don't stay more than a few minutes in slots

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.
