Important change on 21.10 package repository

As you probably already know, Centreon 21.10 is not a supported version anymore (more information here).As a consequence, the RPM package repository for this version has been archived: it moved from https://packages.centreon.com/rpm-standard/21.10 to https://archives.centreon.com/standard/21.10.If your platform is still running 21.10 and you need to update it, please update your YUM or DNF repository configuration to handle this change.

Centreon upgrade

Hi,We are looking at upgrading our Centreon Solution at the moment, but we have run into some problems, so I am hoping someone can help. Firstly let me just say, I am not the most experienced with Linux or Centreon.So What we have is a Redhat Centreon Server, and we did have a Centos Remote Server, this obviously is now obsolete, so we used a script from Github to convert it to Oracle Linux, and this looks to have worked okay. The next bit we were looking at doing was to upgrade Centreon to 24.04, to this end we changed the repo to what we believe is the right one for 24.04baseurl=https://packages.centreon.com/rpm-standard/24.04/el8/stable/$basearch/The problem we are having when we run sudo yum update, it initially looks to go through okay, but then we get the following errors:--> Finished Dependency ResolutionError: Package: perl-FFI-CheckLib-0.31-1.el8.noarch (centreon-plugins-24.04-stab

Centreon: Issue Monitoring a Windows Service with a Specific Template

Hello,I'm currently facing an issue with Centreon while monitoring the services of my Windows virtual machines. When I test the monitoring, Centreon reports that the service is "OK". However, even after stopping the service on my VM, Centreon still shows it as "OK", even though it is actually stopped.How can I fix this issue?Thank you in advance for your help.

Damned licence key!

Hi,I’ve been told licence key were now handled online and I would not have to ask for key anytime. What naive being I had have to beleive in this.In addition I’m quite sure licence was valid before I upgrade from 23.10.18 to 23.10.21.Can someone please look at what the funk could it be made to fix this issue? I can’t upgrade the plugin packs.The fingerprint of the regarded platform is 1c7055ac1152efd834c0f759079ec293c7bc413fef2ea7dc1f9d6b6207626003These licence key problematic is a funky plain in the grass!Cheers.

Issue with VCenter since last update

Hi,Since the last update (version 20.10.4), I’ve been experiencing issues with my VMware setup. The account field in /etc/centreon/centreon_vmware.json is empty, and when I try to resend the login from the Centreon UI in the "Additional Connector Configurations" section, I get the following error:[parameters.vcenters[0].username] The string is empty, but a non-empty string was expected.This issue occurs on all my vCenter hosts. Do you have a solution? When I recreate a vCenter, it works fine.

Service blocked in passive mode

Hello,On 22.10.28Some of our probes remain stuck with active_checks_enabled=0, even though all configurations indicate that the service should be set to 1.For visualization on our poller, the services.cfg file contains:define service {    host_name                      toto.nomdedomaincache.fr    service_description            CPU    register                       1    active_checks_enabled          1    use                            VMWARE_ESX-CPU    _SERVICE_ID                    302823}  And on the Centreon side: The only ways to resolve this issue are:Simply transferring the host to another poller. Stopping centengine, removing the service from the retention.dat file, and then restarting (if there is only one poller).

Services file for BAM and MAP disappear

Hello,I’m pretty new to Centreon, so I apologize in advance.Someone in the company installed the MAP, MBI, and BAM extensions for Centreon 24.10.Everything was working fine until I ran systemctl restart centreon.After that, I couldn’t use the MAP and BAM modules in the web interface. After some research, I found that the .service files on the server had disappeared.I can still see the packages on the server and their licenses in the web client.I haven’t configured or created anything in MAP/BAM yet, so I’m a bit lost and unsure what to do.Should I manually create the .service files?I tried reinstalling the MAP extension, but unfortunately, it didn’t regenerate the .service files.

Using --regexp-name/--process-name options in centreon_windows_wsman.pl with mode 'processes'

Hello,I’m trying to understand how options ‘--regexp-name/--process-name’ work together in plugin centreon_windows_wsman.pl. I haven’t get it.According to help info:--process-name: Filter process name.--regexp-name: Allows to use WQL wildcard to filter process name (with option            --process-name).How does it mean? What is the right way to do it? Is it a real regular expression? Or a WQL-sysntax query? Where do I have to put the regexp? If I want to get all processes starting with ‘p’, how do I have to write the options?:--process-name --regexp-name=”^p” ? --process-name=”^p” --regexp-name ? --process-name --regexp-name=”%p” ? --process-name=”%p” --regexp-name ? --regexp-name=”^p” ? .. …I haven’t found the way…If anybody can give me some light...Thanks in advance.Regards,Albert
