Hello fellow watchers.
Here is the content of the June connector release, hope you’ll enjoy it. Feel free to drop your feedback in the comments!
New Packs
-
Microsoft Active Directory WSMAN & IIS Server WSMAN: In an effort to make the WSMan an alternative to using the NSClient++ Agent, we are extending Microsoft applications monitoring support using this protocol.
-
Azure Traffic Manager: Powered by a community contribution, anyone using this Azure service to load balance the DNS Traffic can now monitor it!
-
Cambium ePMP SNMP: Monitor the antenna gain, license usage, and hardware indicators on Cambium networks ePMP devices.
-
Ceph RestAPI: Check OSD (Object Storage Daemons) and ensure everyone’s participating! Also, discover pool storage utilization and I/O operations volume.
-
HP StoreOnce 4.x RestAPI: A new Pack to support the latest firmware for StoreOnce as it comes with a different API.
-
Libraesva SNMP: Monitoring email security gateway hardware is crucial. This new Pack now makes your life easier.
- Protocol WHOIS: Tracking domain response time and status over time and be alerted when it expires! So simple, thanks to the WHOIS protocol!
Enhancements
-
Centreon * Packs: Minor macro updates to make these Pack compliant with the upcoming Debian support. Also, better management of some edge cases about centengine and broker queues monitoring.
-
Amazon EFS: New host discovery rule.
-
Azure Discover: Many Azure subscriptions? Tired of running a Discovery job for each one of them? Good news: We added a provider discovering all assets within all the subscriptions for a given tenant.
-
HP StoreOnce *: Because of the new Pack supporting StoreOnce 4.x branch, we deprecate the original one and create a new one explicitly specifying the 3.x branch support. Update your hosts with this new template.
-
Linux NRPE3: Add a new check to monitor your services’ systemd status.
-
Proxmox VE: New host discovery rule.
-
Raisecom: Add support for all Raisecom xPON series within the existing Pack.
-
Stormshield SNMP: Update the VPN checks to work with firmware > 4.0.2 and new thresholds options.
Important! Some improvements bring significant updates on some Centreon Plugin Pack and introduce breaking changes.
-
Dell N-Series SNMP: Thanks to our community, we identified that the legacy Dell N4000 Pack was compatible with all the Dell N-Series suites. To remove any doubts, we reworked the code and renamed the Pack. The original one will not benefit from any bug fixes or new checks.
-
Protocol TCP: When Ping is unavailable (firewall rule, ...), issuing a TCP check is an excellent alternative to know if a machine is Up. We had to rename modes and checks to have a Response-Time service that returns metrics similar to the check_icmp plugin.
Bugfixes
-
Amazon Backup Vault: Fix Job-Status command and add missing macros.
-
Amazon RDS: Support new attributes (db_name, id, name) in the host discovery provider.
-
Amazon EBS: Fix wrong mapper name and host template macros.
-
Azure App Service: Fix extra newlines in commands definition, causing failures during CLAPI import.
-
Azure Functions: Fix extra newlines in the definition of commands causing failures during CLAPI import.
-
Citrix Netscaler: vServer discovery rule wasn’t exported because of wrong Pack definition.
-
