Apache adjustments

Configure apache and the files
yum install -y mod_ssl

Goto the website and configure Centreon
yum install -y php-posix chown apache:apache /etc/centreon/conf.pm

Restore the Centreon files from backup.

API installation

Install WMI from Zenoss.

Install VMware Perl API:

yum install perl-XML-LibXML
yum install libuuid-devel
cd /tmp; wget http://search.cpan.org/CPAN/authors/id/C/CF/CFABER/UUID-0.03.tar.gz
tar xvzf UUID-0.03.tar.gz
cd UUID-0.03
perl Makefile.PL
make
make install
find /usr/ -name UUID.pm

Download the vSphere API like VMware-vSphere-Perl-SDK-5.0.0-615831.x86_64.tar.gz
export http_proxy=
export ftp_proxy=
./vmware-install.pl

/usr/bin/perl -MVMware::VIRuntime -e 'print $VMware::VIRuntime::VERSION' /usr/lib/vmware-vcli/apps/general/connect.pl --url https://10.0.2.31/sdk/webService

Addd this line to the check_vmware_api.pl script to prevent the message: Server version unavailable at ‘https://esx01:443/sdk/vimService.wsdl’ at /usr/share/perl5/VMware/VICommon.pm line 545.:
$ENV{PERL_LWP_SSL_VERIFY_HOSTNAME} = 0;

Remove the API if needed: /usr/bin/vmware-uninstall-vSphere-CLI.pl

Database restore

Backup the current centreon environment.

gunzip < backup/20120702154631.centreon.sql.gz | mysql -u root -proot centreon
gunzip < backup/20120702154631.centstorage.sql.gz | mysql -u root -proot centstorage

Testdrive

Export the nagios config from Centreon
chown -R apache:apache /usr/local/nagios/etc

Start Nagios and check plugins. Resultaat:

Compileer de plugins van Nagios opnieuw.
check_vmware_api.pl heeft nodig:
cpan Nagios::Plugin
cpan HTTP:Date
chmod 777 /usr/local/nagios/var/rw/nagios.cmd
cpan Net:DNS voor check_iftrafic3.pl
voor check_mysql_health
cpan Time::HiRes
scp /etc/freetds.conf root@10.0.2.18:/etc/
en een nieuwe versie van check_mysql_health gecompileerd
