Hello everyone,
I’m trying to monitor Proxmox VMs using Centreon with the Proxmox VE Rest API plugin. I’ve followed the official documentation as well as the steps described on these pages:
Centreon Plugin Packs Documentation : https://docs.centreon.com/pp/integrations/plugin-packs/procedures/virtualization-proxmox-ve-restapi/
Proxmox VE Rest API Plugin Procedure : https://docs.centreon.com/docs/monitoring/pluginpacks/#checking-the-monitoring-procedure
I’ve configured the plugin with the correct credentials and macros, but I’m facing two issues:
When I run the plugin manually or through Centreon, I get the following error:
UNKNOWN: 401 authentication failure
I also installed the Proxmox VE connector directly from Centreon and configured my host using the provided template. However, when I check the host availability, it shows 100% undetermined.
I’m wondering if this could be related to:
the realm (pam vs pve),
SSL settings,
or something else.
Another point: the VM.monitoring command no longer exists on Proxmox, which makes me question whether the documentation is up to date.
Has anyone encountered this issue before? Any advice or troubleshooting steps would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!
