NSCA passive check and centreon engine

Hello,

I was looking for the same, for systems that are well protected, so cannot be queried from outside, but allowed to initiate a connection from the host to an outside listener.

I could activate the NSCA on the Client side in Windows:

   nscp settings --activate-module NSCAClient --add-defaults

Then it seems to work same as NRPE check: (hostname = local host DNS name or IP)

   nscp nrpe host=hostname port=5666 payload-length=8192 command=check_cpu
   nscp nsca host=hostname port=5667 payload-length=8192 command=check_cpu

But I haven’t found anywhere how to activate the NSCA Server part:

https://nsclient.org/docs/reference/client/NSCAServer/

Maybe it is not available in Centreon Implementation of NSClient architecture ?!?

Passive checks can be enabled on a service, but it is only for submitting status manually to a service from the GUI.

Have you found the solution finally ?

regards,

Peter
