Hello,

 

We are trying to monitor Acronis Cyber Protect 15 backups deployed on-site. We couldn’t find any plugin handling it.

Is there any way to communicate with the Acronis agent on the server to retrieve the logs of the performed backups ?

👋

 

@Yqnso D  this is a perfect post for the “Ideas” https://thewatch.centreon.com/ideas section. We can discuss with some product owners or other parties interested and move accordingly. 😎

 

@Fabrix do you think we can move this to the “Ideas” section? 😊

Hi @Yqnso D

Thank you for your suggestion. If you have any materials that could help us develop this plugin, please feel free to send it ;)

Hi,

There seems to be an API. Even if one doesn’t have a full plugin, using the HTTP/JSON Centreon plugin should permit to monitor some aspects of this tool.

Hello :)

We gave your idea a chance to be voted on by the community. However, some time has gone by since this idea was put to the vote without it garnering many votes. We're convinced that your need is legitimate and well thought-out, but unfortunately we receive a huge number of idea proposals and we have to sort and prioritise those that best reflect the needs indicated by the community (via the votes). That's why we need to decline this idea as a community idea for better visibility. This doesn't mean that your need can't be solved, you can try to make do with the collections (see the dedicated tutorials) or request a quote from Centreon support if you want to have this development carried out.

Kind regards.

Hi,

I know this is an old thread but I’d like to say to @Yqnso D and others: As long as monitoring plugins are concerned it’s probably a better idea to post that kind of request to the monitoring plugin Github page.

Plugins are the only part of the Centreon suite which seems to be truly developed in a FOSS philosophy, as as an opensource and open standard (ie: Nagios de facto standard) codebase, it could still be used in some other Nagios-like monitoring software.

IMO it would maybe be merged with https://github.com/nagios-plugins/nagios-plugins and thus uncoupled from the Centreon project. For clarity and visibility purposes.
