Templates​
The Monitoring Connector VMware VeloCloud brings a host template:
- Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Edge-Restapi-custom
The connector brings the following service templates (sorted by the host template they are attached to):
- Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Edge-Restapi-custom
- Not attached to a host template
Service Alias | Service Template | Service Description |
---|---|---|
Application-Usage | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Application-Usage-Restapi-custom | Check bandwidth usage per application. |
Category-Usage | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Category-Usage-Restapi-custom | Check bandwidth usage per application category. |
Edge-Qoe | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Edge-Qoe-Restapi-custom | Check edge and edge's links QOE score. |
Edge-Status | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Edge-Status-Restapi-custom | Check edge status. |
The services listed above are created automatically when the Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Edge-Restapi-custom host template is used.
Service Alias | Service Template | Service Description | Discovery |
---|---|---|---|
Link-Status | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Link-Status-Restapi-custom | Check edge's links status. | X |
Link-Usage | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Link-Usage-Restapi-custom | Check edge's links usage. | X |
The services listed above are not created automatically when a host template is applied. To use them, create a service manually, then apply the service template you want.
If Discovery is checked, it means a service discovery rule exists for this service template.

Prerequisites​
To use this connector, you must have the login and a password of an account allowed to use the VeloCloud Orchestrator API.
Installing the monitoring connector​
Pack​
- If the platform uses an online license, you can skip the package installation instruction below as it is not required to have the connector displayed within the Configuration > Monitoring Connector Manager menu. If the platform uses an offline license, install the package on the central server with the command corresponding to the operating system's package manager:
- Alma / RHEL / Oracle Linux 8
- Alma / RHEL / Oracle Linux 9
- Debian 11 & 12
- CentOS 7
dnf install centreon-pack-cloud-vmware-velocloud-restapi
dnf install centreon-pack-cloud-vmware-velocloud-restapi
apt install centreon-pack-cloud-vmware-velocloud-restapi
yum install centreon-pack-cloud-vmware-velocloud-restapi
- Whatever the license type (online or offline), install the VMware VeloCloud connector through the Configuration > Monitoring Connector Manager menu.
Plugin​
Since Centreon 22.04, you can benefit from the 'Automatic plugin installation' feature. When this feature is enabled, you can skip the installation part below.
You still have to manually install the plugin on the poller(s) when:
- Automatic plugin installation is turned off
- You want to run a discovery job from a poller that doesn't monitor any resource of this kind yet
More information in the Installing the plugin section.
Use the commands below according to your operating system's package manager:
- Alma / RHEL / Oracle Linux 8
- Alma / RHEL / Oracle Linux 9
- Debian 11 & 12
- CentOS 7
dnf install centreon-plugin-Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Restapi
dnf install centreon-plugin-Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Restapi
apt install centreon-plugin-cloud-vmware-velocloud-restapi
yum install centreon-plugin-Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Restapi
Using the monitoring connector​
Using a host template provided by the connector​
- Log into Centreon and add a new host through Configuration > Hosts.
- Fill in the Name, Alias & IP Address/DNS fields according to your resource's settings.
- Apply the Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Edge-Restapi-custom template to the host. A list of macros appears. Macros allow you to define how the connector will connect to the resource, and to customize the connector's behavior.
- Fill in the macros you want. Some macros are mandatory.

- Deploy the configuration. The service appears in the list of services, and on the Resources Status page. The command that is sent by the connector is displayed in the details panel of the service: it shows the values of the macros.
How to check in the CLI that the configuration is OK and what are the main options for?​
Once the plugin is installed, log into your Centreon poller's CLI using the
centreon-engine user account (su - centreon-engine
). Test that the connector
is able to monitor a resource using a command like this one (replace the sample values by yours):
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_velocloud_restapi.pl \
--plugin=cloud::vmware::velocloud::restapi::plugin \
--mode=link-usage \
--hostname='' \
--api-path='/portal/rest' \
--username='' \
--password='' \
--port='443' \
--proto='https' \
--timeout='10' \
--proxyurl= \
--filter-edge-name='' \
--filter-link-name='' \
--warning-links-traffic-in='' \
--critical-links-traffic-in='' \
--warning-links-traffic-out='' \
--critical-links-traffic-out='' \
--warning-edge-links-count='' \
--critical-edge-links-count='' \
--warning-traffic-in='' \
--critical-traffic-in='' \
--warning-traffic-out='' \
--critical-traffic-out='' \
--warning-latency-in='' \
--critical-latency-in='' \
--warning-latency-out='' \
--critical-latency-out='' \
--warning-jitter-in='' \
--critical-jitter-in='' \
--warning-jitter-out='' \

--warning-packet-loss-in='' \
--critical-packet-loss-in='' \
--warning-packet-loss-out='' \
--critical-packet-loss-out='' \
--timeframe='900' \
--verbose
The expected command output is shown below:
OK: Total Traffic In: 23 23/s Total Traffic Out: 94 94/s 76 link(s) All links status are ok | '*edges*~links.traffic.in.bitspersecond'=23b/s;;;0; '*edges*~links.traffic.out.bitspersecond'=94b/s;;;0; '*edges*~links.total.count'=76;;;0; '*edges*~*links*#link.traffic.in.bitspersecond'=b/s;;;0; '*edges*~*links*#link.traffic.out.bitspersecond'=b/s;;;0; '*edges*~*links*#link.latency.in.milliseconds'=ms;;;0; '*edges*~*links*#link.latency.out.milliseconds'=ms;;;0; '*edges*~*links*#link.jitter.in.milliseconds'=ms;;;0; '*edges*~*links*#link.jitter.out.milliseconds'=ms;;;0; '*edges*~*links*#link.packet.loss.in.percentage'=%;;;0;100 '*edges*~*links*#link.packet.loss.out.percentage'=%;;;0;100
Troubleshooting​
Please find the troubleshooting documentation for the API-based plugins in this chapter.
Available modes​
In most cases, a mode corresponds to a service template. The mode appears in the execution command for the connector. In the Centreon interface, you don't need to specify a mode explicitly: its use is implied when you apply a service template. However, you will need to specify the correct mode for the template if you want to test the execution command for the connector in your terminal.
All available modes can be displayed by adding the --list-mode
parameter to
the command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins/centreon_velocloud_restapi.pl \
--plugin=cloud::vmware::velocloud::restapi::plugin \
--list-mode
The plugin brings the following modes:
Mode | Linked service template |
---|---|
application-usage [code] | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Application-Usage-Restapi-custom |
category-usage [code] | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Category-Usage-Restapi-custom |
discovery [code] | Used for host discovery |
edge-qoe [code] | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Edge-Qoe-Restapi-custom |
edge-status [code] | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Edge-Status-Restapi-custom |
link-status [code] | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Link-Status-Restapi-custom |
link-usage [code] | Cloud-Vmware-Velocloud-Link-Usage-Restapi-custom |
list-edges [code] | Not used in this Monitoring Connector |
list-links [code] | Used for service discovery |
