SNMP deprecated, use CIM instead, on Windows 10 workstation

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

Database migration

Hello,I need to migrate a large amount of data from an old centreon server to a new centreon server.So I can use the migration document, but can I export only a part of the database? Or can I just transfer all the data at once?Because I have a large amount of data to transfer (on average 200GB in centreon_storage).Thank you for your answer.

Centreon Applications

Hello,I'm interested in the Centreon ( the open source version)  I understand that the solution provides hardware monitoring.I wanted to know if the Nagios Core solution also offers monitoring for the following elements:Web Applications (internal IS and SaaS IS) (Access time to the service, definition of business actions, transactional errors, response time, incidents on plugins, etc.)Software installed on workstations (examples: Loading time, errors, CPU and memory usage. For the Office suite, a more detailed view (email opening time, waiting time for sending, opening time for encrypted emails, opening time for the calendar, opening time for Teams, display time for Teams, etc.)Operating System (examples: crashes, blue screens, driver issues)Antivirus, EDR (examples: Impact of the process on equipment load)Filers (examples: Network drives, OneDrive)Equipment startup (Example: including details up to the end of session loading as well as user-initiated shutdowns "button")I wanted to kno

ESX-Memory counter.

Hello TeamI have just added few ESXi to the centreon. All monitored services are ok except ‘Esx-Memory’, which has status UNKNOWN with error: Cannot get counter 'mem.state.latest' for the sampling period '300' (counter level: 2, sampling level: 1) . I found some advise that it can be fixed in vcenter web client but i cannot find where to change value from 1 to 2 for ‘ mem.state.latest ‘ settings, which is responsible for this counter.

[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
