Today in “A Podcast for IT” we have a talk about Centreon, We talk about what it is, What you can offer us, How it can be assembled, Things to keep in mind, What we can monitor, how… And above all, how we can exploit and grow the infrastructure monitoring layer.
We will use this document to monitor with Centreon the size and number of files that our Citrix roaming profiles have, Of course, we can use it to monitor other folders.
If we want to have centralized control of the licenses of our Citrix environments, we can easily do it with Centreon, as usual, we will base ourselves on a script that will run on the license server and pass its output to Centreon, this way we will know when we are going to run out of licenses and above all, we will have them under control and they will serve to justify new acquisitions.
If we typically use the Veeam Backup and Replication Agent in our organization to back up our computers, laptops or servers; we will use this post to centralize and of course have all our backups in Centreon perfectly controlled!
If we want to check the time we have between a Windows machine and the time that its Active Directory has, This is your document! We will be able to check with the following script the time difference in milliseconds that we have, is super useful to check a service as critical as the Time, and that all our machines have it perfectly synchronized!
If we are concerned about keeping our Microsoft Windows environment up to date and controlled, we can also help ourselves with monitoring to control the pending patches that our Servers have in Windows Update. Let's continue to centralize everything we can in our management panel, let's control all our infrastructure from Nagios or Centreon and live more relaxed!
Well, Well… Let's put a little more txitxa in our Nagios, Centreon or whatever we got, We will continue with something very interesting for those who want to monitor more advanced items! We will use a small agent that will be installed on remote Windows or Linux computers, For what? Well, among other things, to execute scripts on these computers. We can run any PowerShell script, Batch, VBScript, Perl… and then read the result of the command and discuss it with Nagios!
