Azure Resource
Prerequisites
Centreon Plugin
Install this plugin on each needed poller:
yum install centreon-plugin-Cloud-Azure-Management-Resource-Api
Perl dependencies (for 'api' custom mode)
By installing the plugin, some perl depencies will be installed :
JSON::XS
DateTime
Digest::MD5
Digest::SHA
LWP::UserAgent
LWP::Protocol::https
IO::Socket::SSL
URI
HTTP::ProxyPAC
The login and access token handling will be made by the plugin itself.
Azure CLI 2.0 (for 'azcli' custom mode)
The CLI needs at least Python version 2.7 (https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/blob/dev/doc/install_linux_prerequisites.md).
On CentOS/RedHat, install with following commands:
(As root)
# rpm --import https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc
# echo -e "[azure-cli]\nname=Azure CLI\nbaseurl=https://packages.microsoft.com/yumrepos/azure-cli\nenabled=1\ngpgcheck=1\ngpgkey=https://packages.microsoft.com/keys/microsoft.asc" > /etc/yum.repos.d/azure-cli.repo
# yum install azure-cli
(As centreon-engine)
# az login
The shell should prompt:
To sign in, use a web browser to open the page https://microsoft.com/devicelogin and enter the code CWT4WQZAD to authenticate.
Go to https://microsoft.com/devicelogin and enter the given code.
Log in with your account credentials. You should use a service account. Application is not yet supported.
The command line should now show:
[
{
"cloudName": "AzureCloud",
"id": "0ef83f3a-d83e-2039-d930-309df93acd93d",
"isDefault": true,
"name": "N/A(tenant level account)",
"state": "Enabled",
"tenantId": "0ef83f3a-03cd-2039-d930-90fd39ecd048",
"user": {
"name": "email@mycompany.onmicrosoft.com",
"type": "user"
}
}
]
You now have a hidden azure directory where your token is stored in an accessTokens.json file.
