New check methodNew

Hi,it should be great to have a specific check method that do only one check by day, at a random hour.For now, we can do a 1 check service on a specific time period, but all checks are done at the start of the time period.When we need only one check by day for a service, we don’t care about the time of the check, and it will be more light to process for pollers.

Cisco ISE connector - check node statusNew

There is a Cisco ISE connector which delivers some numbers about sessions of an ISE deployment.I was wondering, if it does support to check the node status !?We have a bigger deployment and a node was in sync-failed. I thought, this should be covered as an option by the connector, but I didn’t find anything.This information is available from the ISE API and could be added as additional mode.

Improve the discoverability of host templates within Web InterfaceDiscussion ongoing

Right now when a use is on Centreon and wants to create a host, the only component they can use to decide what to implement is the Template select field.This is a little bit raw to let users discover what they want to install.In a similar way as Connectors or the new wizard for pollers, i would like to be able to let users go in a cleaner interface to choose what template they are looking to implement.This could take many forms as it’s more related to how the UI would show the information to the user and i’m unsure how easily we can structure this from the list of templates.But this is my idea, to avoid the hassle of the user going through documentation to find what host template to use, to prefer to stay on the centreon and go through a wizard to choose what template to integrate. What does the community think of this ?

Nested host groupNew

Hi everyone,I would like to know if it is possible to set up nested host groups (one or two level of nesting) in Centreon.In my current setup, I have several separate host groups such as:Bureau1_LAN Bureau1_WIFI Bureau1_Printers Bureau1_...What I would like to do is place all these groups into a master host group called "Bureau1".This would be very useful during maintenance, because I could simply apply the downtime to the master group instead of selecting every individual sub‑group manually.The sub‑groups (LAN, WiFi, Printers, etc.) are still necessary, since sometimes maintenance applies only to a specific type of equipment and not to all devices in the Bureau category.Another use case would be to use this host group in MAP, which would allow us to enter it, view the host sub‑groups, and then drill down into those sub‑groups to access the individual hostsAt the moment, we use host categories as a kind of ‘master group’, but this doesn’t meet all our needs:it is not possible to put all hosts in a category into maintenance, and it is not possible to display the hosts of a category on MAP  Would it be possible to consider this kind of improvement?I saw that this topic already existed, but it seems that we do not have the same use cases. Thanks in advance!

Connecteur OPNSenseNew

Bonjour,Je propose à l’équipe de Centreon de développer un connecteur pour les pare-feux Opnsense.Il existe un connecteur pour PFSense mais tout les contrôles ne sont pas compatible.

Changer le message de fermeture de ticket Open TicketNew

Le message de fermeture de ticket dans Open Ticket devrait dépendre du provider parce que dans mon cas, j’utilise Service Now et la fermeture des tickets n’est pas comprise dans les options et les superviseurs sont confus à chaque fois qu’ils voient ce message :  

[Dashboard] Nouveaux types de grapheDiscussion ongoing

[DASHBOARD] Possibilité de créer des graphes de répartition avec des métrics de services différentsDiscussion ongoing

Bonjour, Nous souhaiterions avoir la possibilité (et la flexibilité) de créer un graphe/ widget de répartition avec des données métrologiques issues de services différents mais avec la même unité de mesure : Exemple de graphe : Pour prendre un exemple concret :Si nous avons 3 hôtes avec des services  “nombres de connexion” :Pouvoir ajouter les métriques (qui doivent être de la même unité de mesure) dans le graphe afin de pouvoir créer un graphe camembert ou histogramme de réparation, nuage de points ou bulles . Exemple :Hôte 1 : 20 connexionsHôte 2 : 10 connexionsHôte 3 : 10 connexionsGraphe de 40 connexions = 100 % →  avec affichage de la réparation en valeur brut ou pourcentage.Si on ajoute une donnée de nombre de connexion, ça fait donc évoluer le graphe en réel. C’est un vrai besoin de notre entreprise pour pouvoir utiliser le dashboard plus comme un outil de pilotage que comme un dashboard de supervision.Il manque selon nous des types de graphes (graphe camembert ou histogramme de réparation, nuage de points ou bulles,..) et de la souplesses de configuration (aller prendre des métriques d’hôtes ou services différents). Je vais faire un “ideas” a ce sujet.Cordialement,Arnaud 

how are Business Activities shown?Discussion ongoing

Hi,I’m playing around with BA’s and a complex system/application could have lots of nested BA’s.On one hand I like the idea to collapse to the top level BA, when everything is fine.But on the other hand, sometimes I wish to make a level of BA always expanded.Is this in conflict to the BA idea in general or would it make sense to have the possibility to show a BA-level always expanded, even if everything looks good !?

VEEAM13Planned

Veeam has released version 13, which is no longer compatible with the current Centreon connectors.In this version, access is only available through the REST API:https://helpcenter.veeam.com/references/vbr/13/rest/1.3-rev0/tag/LoginVeeam is now provided as a Linux appliance with specific command sets.Could you please consider updating the Centreon plugin to support this new version and its REST API access?

Poller list filtering/sortingNeeds Votes

Hi,I would like to propose a idea, that in the configuration→ pollers page, it would be possible to filter or sort poller list by the conf changed column also.  It is quite annoying to scroll and one by one choose the pollers to upload the configuration to (especially if you have 40+ probes like we have).Also add a feature at least in the beginning to see who made the change and later also to see the list of changes made to the configuration (if I remember it correctly then just like Juniper devices show differences - show configuration | compare roll-back ). It cant be that hard, as the system already understands that there have been changes made to the configurations as it shows conf changed YES.Also would be perfect if this feature is something that can be enabled or disabled either globally or defined by user. Why like that - because if there is just 1 person doing changes in the monitoring, then he/she knows exactly what changes they have done. But if there are more people doing the changes, then it would be good to know who is doing the changes, what changes and to make sure you are not uploading somebodies half configured hosts/services etc.

list Recurrent downtimes in host/service descriptionNeeds Votes

List/show Recurrent downtimes in host/service description.Because If you have lot of recurrent Downtimes, we need to make SQL request to find which downtime is linked to a host/service.or you need to review all your recurrent downtime one by one...

Monitoring of Axway CFT TransfersNeeds Votes

Hi ! I am looking to improve the monitoring and supervision of file transfers managed by Axway CFT. Currently, we rely on basic error file detection, but I would like to implement a more robust and comprehensive solution.Do you have recommendations or best practices for:Monitoring transfer statuses (success, failure, pending) Detecting partner-specific errors Integrating CFT supervision with monitoring tools like Centreon or Nagios Analyzing CFT logs for anomalies or connection issues Automating alerts and notifications for critical transfer failures  Are you planning to develop a future plugin for monitoring Axway CFT?If so, do you have an estimated release date or roadmap for this feature?

Apply new graphical action buttons (new Business Activity - style) in all config pagesNeeds Votes

Hello,After we’ve upgraded Centreon from 24.04. to 24.10 we noticed, that for nearly each page under Configuration\Commands a new way of presenting/using actions was provided (like in Business Activity config pages).They are WAY MORE CONVENIENT to use than it is in the old style. But the old style action “buttons” are still in many other places.Once you have started with the pages in Command section, will you do the same for other pages where the old style is still there?  Best regards. 

Possibility to enable/disable notifications when host downDeclined

Hello, Currently we are able to enable or disable the checks for services attached to a host down. Unfortunately (for me), regarding notification, it’s disable by design and it’s not possible to enable it. In my use case it’s problematic because we use notification to perfom several actions when a service went critical. Also, we don’t realy use alerts coming from hosts. We prefer use directly a service named ping. So, currently if a host is down, it blocks all our automation because no notification will be sent. A button to enable or disbale in case of host down will be very helpful. Thank you for considering this idea  

MAP – Make Link Metric Values MovableNeeds Votes

The metric values displayed on links are difficult to read when there are many of them placed close together.Sometimes, it's hard to space out the links differently, especially when there are a lot of elements to display.Would it be possible to add a feature that allows these values to be manually moved, so they can be made more visible and easier to read?

Enable fallback / recovery to local authentication when using OIDC / SAML authenticationDeclined

It seems to me that if, for example, I configure OpenID Connect ONLY authentication I have no fallback to local authentication if one day OIDC auth was to fail for whatever reason. For sure “Mixed-mode” exists but that just encourages half of my team to skip the OIDC button and continue authenticating with their LDAP accounts / local accounts (which is what they did in the past) - old habits die hard and while the team SHOULD go through the OIDC flow, do MFA, sign on with our SSO system etc., they often just SEE the Centreon login page and use it - so Mixed mode is not really useful for us.In the case of an OIDC / SAML failure (imagine after an upgrade of these systems, not impossible) could you not do provide an IP restricted URL that would provide local authentication fallback to the admins of Centreon that come from a certain restricted IP range, or potentially a configuration file that declares the auth type so that it could it temporarily changed until the OIDC problems are fixed.Auth_type = “local_only | oidc_only | oidc_mixed | saml_only | saml_mixed” etc.

Plugin Upgrades - App-DB-MySQL-Sql-Statement & App-DB-MySQL-Sql-Statement-StringDeclined

Currently, the App-DB-MySQL-Sql-Statement and App-DB-MySQL-Sql-Statement-String plugins allow you to query a single piece of data per service. Would it be possible to upgrade so that I can query multiple pieces of data from my MySQL database in a single service?Best Regards,
