CES Centreon Enterprise Server
I tired the Standard 2.0 64bits (October 31st 2012)
Today I tested the CES server I was kind of disappointed to find out that
it does not have all Centreon cool tools pre-installed, I guess its also a funny
name “Enterprise Standard”, hum…
There is no “Enterprise Complete” .iso available on the website, maybe that one
would be the real thing. I was disappointed to see it does not even have
the latest Centreon (2.3.9)pre-installed. or latest CentOS 6.x .
It’s nice that it has a .iso where you can boot from, but the idea is not new
at all, check FAN – FullAutomatedNagios at http://felipeferreira.net/?p=224
Facts:
ces-standard-2.0-x86_64.iso
Does not come with:
Centreon Engine
Centreon Broker
Centreon BAM
Centreon BI
Centreon MAP
*Supposed a “Complete Edition” has it but its not available for downloading.
It does have:
CentOS 5.X (64bits)
Centreon – 2.2.12 (current 2.3.9)
centreon-clapi – 1.1.0 (current 1.4.0)

    1. In the centreon web interface logged in as admin you will have CONFIGURATION > NAGIOS

  1. It’s been renamed to “Configuration > Monitoring Engines” to better reflect the support for different engines (Icinga, Nagios, Centreon-Broker….).
