Removing the ability to create services linked to multiple hosts or host groupsFeature Sunset

Dear users, In order to simplify and improve the user experience of our software, we plan to remove two features in an upcoming major update:Creating services linked to multiple hosts. Creating services by host group.We understand that these features may still be used by some of you, but we believe they can be replaced by the use of templates. We are making this decision to optimize the software and make it more intuitive. Proposal of solutions when updating the Centreon platform Services linked to multiple hostsCreating a service linked to multiple hosts allows you to have an identical configuration of this service for multiple hosts.This service can be transformed into a service template. A single service will be created for each linked host and will inherit the template you previously created.This update will be performed automatically during the Centreon platform update process (target: Centreon 25.10). Services by Host GroupCreating a service by host group allows for the same serv

BBDO2 Deprecation with Centreon 25.10 ReleaseFeature Sunset

 We wish to inform all users that BBDO2 will be officially deprecated with the 25.10 release of Centreon. This change is part of our ongoing effort to enhance the platform’s performance, security, and compatibility with modern infrastructure requirements. What is BBDO? BBDO, for Binary Broker for Data Operations, is a core protocol for exchanging monitoring data between a Centreon central server and pollers/remote servers.  Why is BBDO2 Being Deprecated? With Broker 22.04.0, we have introduced a new version of BBDO based on Google Protobuf 3.The new protocol remains compatible with the previous one, but introduces new events.There are several key reasons for the depreciation of BBDO2:Performance improvements Flexibility: easier maintenance and enhancements To enable Broker-managed configuration & differential configuration export, which are using Protobuf messages (reduced network footprint for configuration updates).What This Means for You For most of our customers, BBDO3 is aread

centreon_storage folder full

I was trying to run updates on my Centreon VM this morning and it wasn’t able to download the updates.  Check the disk size and I am seeing my dev/sda is full.  Digging in further I found that the /var/lib/mysql/centreon_storage folder is using the vast majority of my disk space.  After some googling I did find the retention settings and I change all of those values, but I assume there is a job that I need to run in order for it to go through and gracefully purge those older files?  I found this referenced sudo -u centreon /opt/rh/rh-php72/root/usr/bin/php /usr/share/centreon/cron/centstorage_purge.php, but it did not work on my system.  This is the OVA for Centreon that I am running on and I am currently on version 24.04.12.  Any help would be appreciated on this.

Problem plugin vmware

Hi I have had a problem with centreon updates for some time. My version is 24.10.8. The problem is in the vmware infrastructure monitoring plugin. Previously (based on the centreon_vmware.pm file) everything worked fine. After updates (from several versions within 24.10) the centreon_vmware service does not want to start. When I change the option to old in the /etc/default/centreon_vmware file and restore the centreon_vmware.pm file, everything returns to normal.Here is the configuration and logs after updates (the last one to 24.10.8), which do not work well.My instance: Centreon 24.10.8, Debian 12. $ ls -lrazem 44-rw-rw---- 1 www-data www-data 1287 2018-10-17 centreon.conf.php-rw-r----- 1 centreon centreon 390 06-24 08:25 centreontrapd.pm-rw-rw-r-- 1 centreon centreon 390 2024-05-16 centreontrapd.pm.dpkg-dist-rw-rw---- 1 centreon-gorgone centreon 626 06-24 08:24 centreon_vmware.json-rw-r--r-- 1 centreon centreon 812 03-28 09:37 centreon_vmware.pm

SSO et API Rest

Je teste actuellement une intégration avec Centreon via l’API REST (en utilisant les endpoints natifs de Centreon).Je voudrais savoir s’il est possible d’utiliser cette API tout en bénéficiant du SSO (LDAP) déjà en place.Je n’ai pas accès à une plateforme de test avec le SSO activé, mais chez l’utilisateur final, l’authentification SSO via LDAP fonctionne sur l’interface web de Centreon.Ma question est donc la suivante :Est-il possible d’utiliser le SSO (basé sur LDAP) pour récupérer le token nécessaire aux appels API ?Et si oui, y a-t-il une documentation précisant les en-têtes ou paramètres spécifiques à fournir (par exemple en complément du UseDefaultCredentials = true dans le handler) ?Merci d’avance pour vos retours !

How to export "Services by host group" items?

Dear Community!I have been using Centreon for a while and we have been working on migrating our Centreon infrastructure to a new environment.It is important to note that, we are using a lot of “Services by host group” type of configurations.So while preparing for this migration activity, I tried to export the whole configuration (with checking all type of objects in the Export menu). When I checked the content of the export file, I did not find any services which are configured as “Services by host group”. I’m unable to create an export, which contains also the configuration also for services, which are assigned to host groups. Has anybody experienced the same with Centreon Community edition version 24.10.8 ? Thank You very much in advance for the support!

Ghost Host still visible in Resource Status after deletion

 Hi everyone,I’m facing a strange issue on my Centreon platform.One of our clients had a dedicated poller, but they left our infrastructure and cut the connection to the Central server.I believe the administrators moved the hosts to another poller and then deleted the old poller after a configuration reload.However, one host still appears in the Resource Status view, even though it no longer exists in the Hosts configuration.Interestingly, only the services appear with a green "OK" status, while the host itself is shown as Pending (blue dot), even though it shouldn’t exist anymore.I’ve already tried restarting cbd and gorgoned, but the ghost entry is still there.Has anyone experienced something similar?Any idea how to clean this up?Thanks in advance!

Acknowledgements with possibility to set end dates

We have some messages that we eliminate via an automatic restart during the night (e.g. C disks with warning, SWAP messages).If we work with acknowledgements and the problem has not been solved overnight, the alarm remains permanently acknowledged and we lose sight of this alarm.If we work with a downtime until the next morning at 05:00 (which we currently do), we do not notice if the C disk switches from Warning to Critical by then and may prevent users from continuing to work.

centreon vmware do NOT upgrade to 24.10.8, it will break you configs

Hello,If you are using  Centreon (in  Configuration > Connectors > Additional Configurations) to manage your Centreon VMware demon , do NOT upgrade to 24.10.8. The configuration manager is completely broken Lost on all the user/pass previously enteredImpossible to fix the config because of JS errorsUser and Password field unusable because all characters in every fields are replaced by stars (yes, even the users) The result will be non-working configuration for the demon and you will loose all the monitoring of the vcenters. The work around for me was to get the config JSON from a backup, restore it under another name,  and modify the /etc/sysconfig/centreon_vmware on every poller to force centreon_vmware use this file. Good luck.
