Memory and CPU usage of a Cisco CBS350

Hi everyone,I’m encountering an error with the centreon_cisco plugin while trying to monitor memory usage on a Cisco CBS350 switch (firmware version 3.4.0.17): UNKNOWN: Cannot find memory informationsHas anyone experienced this issue before? If so, are there known workarounds to retrieve memory metrics?Details: The plugin fails to fetch memory data via SNMP. A custom script workaround might require privilege level 15 (full admin access), which is restrictive. Questions: Is there a specific OID for memory monitoring on CBS350 switches running firmware 3.4.0.17? Are there alternative methods to monitor memory without requiring privilege level 15? Any insights, scripts, or configuration tips would be greatly appreciated!Thanks

Monitor web page return code

Hi,I am trying to add a check on a web page to ensure it is up and running. I tried with the HTTP plugin with the HTTP-Response-Time service template. By default it will fail only if the web server is not responding but it will be OK even with a 404 error for exemple. So I guess I have to use the option --critical-status to check that return code is 200. This gave me the following command/usr/lib/centreon/plugins//centreon_protocol_http.pl--plugin=apps::protocols::http::plugin--mode=response--hostname=myhostname--proto='https'--port='443'--urlpath=''--warning=''--critical=''--http-peer-addr='my_web_page_url'--critical-status='%{http_code} != 200'However when the web page URL returns a status different from 200 the test is still OK.I guess I should use a different syntax for the --critical-status parameter? But all the exemples I found refers to this syntax.I might have to use a different plugin or template to do what I seek? But I could not find which one then.Your help or comments are

UNKNOWN: Can't call method "add_options" on an undefined value when using HDS CSU REST plugin

Hello,I'm running Centreon and trying to use the plugin hardware::hds::csu::rest::plugin  (internally developed but issue is not related to the plugin) to monitor an HDS storage system via REST. However, I'm getting the following error when executing the plugin manually:UNKNOWN: Can't call method "add_options" on an undefined value at /usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon-plugins/src/centreon/plugins/http.pm line 32.Here's the command I'm running:perl /usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon-plugins/src/centreon_plugins.pl \ --plugin=hardware::hds::csu::rest::plugin \ --mode=alerts \ --custommode=api \ --hostname=xxxxxx \ --username='localhost\xxxxx' \ --password='xxxx' \ --csuid='4c4c4544-0046-4210-8033-b8c04f335732' \ --ssl-opt='SSL_verify_mode => SSL_VERIFY_NONE'Additional notes: All required Perl packages (e.g. perl-libwww-perl, perl-LWP-Protocol-https, etc.) are installed. Basic plugin tests like check_ping or check_memory work fine using the same Perl binary and environment.

Centreon plugin fails with 'Can't locate ZMQ/LibZMQ4.pm' despite zeromq installed – conflict with system packages

Hi all,I'm trying to use the Centreon plugin for VMware (apps::vmware::connector::plugin) on a poller running RHEL 9 / AlmaLinux 9. The plugin fails with the following error: UNKNOWN: Cannot load module --custommode. Can't locate ZMQ/LibZMQ4.pm in @INC (you may need to install the ZMQ::LibZMQ4 module) (@INC contains: /usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon-plugins/src ...) I installed zeromq and zeromq-devel from the default system repo, which provides version 4.3.4. However, ZMQ::LibZMQ4 requires libzmq headers to compile, and Centreon’s own repo (centreon-24.10-stable) provides zeromq-devel-4.3.5, which conflicts with the system-installed version: Error: Problem: package zeromq-devel-4.3.5-1.el9.x86_64 from centreon-24.10-stable requires libzmq5 = 4.3.5-1.el9, but none of the providers can be installed - libzmq5-4.3.5 conflicts with zeromq 4.3.4 from @System Since Gorgoned is already running using the system version of zeromq, I don't want to risk breaking it by replacing it.I’m not sure

Gorgone configuration file : Error when connecting to the Gorgone server
