Hi all,

Juste tried to implement a single Linux Host with the CMA agent configured on my poller (Centreon 24.10.12)
I chose the default mode : "The Agents connects to the Poller".


Everything is working well, but I am suprised to see that:

- All the services are by in Passive Mode (→ not possible to force check)
- If the centagent service (On the monitored host) fails to start or stops for any reason : All the services will remain OK status … so no alert … which means that the host is not rmonitored any more.  (This is inherent to the PASSIVE MODE)
​​​​​​​- Another consequence is that (with passive service) you cannot see the real Command executed by the probe by clicking on it  (As we have with Active probes).

I was expecting that the agent would initiate the connection to the poller while starting only… and that then: the probes executions would be initiated by the poller (as active services).

Is there any improvement planned or that or is it wanted to be working like that ?

I was told that services are also all passive with the other mode : "The Poller connects to the Agent".
(I didn’t try it again)

Thanks a lot,

Kind Regards.
