Configuring Gorgone in rebound mode
This procedure describes how to configure Gorgone between a remote poller and a central server, via a rebound server.
Note: In our case, we have the configuration described below (you must adapt the procedure to your configuration).
Central server:
- address: 10.30.2.203
Rebound server:
- id: 1024 (This id is an arbitrary number and must be unique).
- address: 10.30.2.67
- rsa public key thumbprint: NmnPME43IoWpkQoam6CLnrI5hjmdq6Kq8QMUCCg-F4g
Remote Poller:
- id: 6 (configured in Centreon interface as zmq. You can get this id from the Centreon interface)
- address: 10.30.2.179
- rsa public key thumbprint: nJSH9nZN2ugQeksHif7Jtv19RQA58yjxfX-Cpnhx09s
On the remote poller side
Installation requirements
Ensure the remote poller and Gorgone are already installed.
Configuration
Configure the file /etc/centreon-gorgone/config.d/40-gorgoned.yaml as follows:
name: distant-server
description: Configuration for distant server
gorgone:
gorgonecore:
id: 6
privkey: "/var/lib/centreon-gorgone/.keys/rsakey.priv.pem"
pubkey: "/var/lib/centreon-gorgone/.keys/rsakey.pub.pem"
modules:
- name: action
package: gorgone::modules::core::action::hooks
enable: true
- name: engine
package: gorgone::modules::centreon::engine::hooks
enable: true
command_file: "/var/lib/centreon-engine/rw/centengine.cmd"
- name: pull
package: "gorgone::modules::core::pull::hooks"
enable: true
target_type: tcp
target_path: 10.30.2.67:5556
ping: 1
On the rebound server side
Installation requirements
Ensure you have installed a server with a supported OS.
Then install the Gorgone daemon using the following commands:
- Alma / RHEL / Oracle Linux 8
- Alma / RHEL / Oracle Linux 9
- Debian 11 & 12
dnf install -y dnf-plugins-core
dnf config-manager --add-repo https://packages.centreon.com/rpm-standard/24.04/el8/centreon-24.04.repo
dnf clean all --enablerepo=*
dnf update
dnf install centreon-gorgone
dnf install -y dnf-plugins-core
dnf config-manager --add-repo https://packages.centreon.com/rpm-standard/24.04/el9/centreon-24.04.repo
dnf clean all --enablerepo=*
dnf update
dnf install centreon-gorgone
To install the Centreon repository, execute the following command:
echo "deb https://packages.centreon.com/apt-standard-24.04-stable/ $(lsb_release -sc) main" | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/centreon.list
echo "deb https://packages.centreon.com/apt-plugins-stable/ $(lsb_release -sc) main" | tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/centreon-plugins.list
Then import the repository key:
wget -O- https://apt-key.centreon.com | gpg --dearmor | tee /etc/apt/trusted.gpg.d/centreon.gpg > /dev/null 2>&1
apt update
Then install Gorgone:
apt install centreon-gorgone
