Templatesβ
The Centreon Monitoring Connector AIX SNMP brings a host template:
It brings the following service templates:
Service Alias | Service Template | Service Description | Default | Discovery |
---|
Cpu | OS-AIX-Cpu-SNMP | Check the rate of utilization of CPU for the machine. This check can give the average CPU utilization rate and the rate per CPU for multi-core CPU | X | |
Disk-Generic-Id | OS-AIX-Disk-Generic-Id-SNMP | Check the rate of free space on the disk. For each checks the name of the disk will appear | | |
Disk-Generic-Name | OS-AIX-Disk-Generic-Name-SNMP | Check the rate of free space on the disk. For each checks the mount pont of the disk will appear | | |
Disk-Global | OS-AIX-Disk-Global-SNMP | Check the rate of free space on disks. For each checks the mount point of disks will appear | | X |
Process-Generic | OS-AIX-Process-Generic-SNMP | Check Linux process | | X |
Swap | OS-AIX-Swap-SNMP | Check virtual memory usage | X | |
Time | OS-AIX-Time-SNMP | Check NTP synchronization | X | |
Traffic-Generic-Id | OS-AIX-Traffic-Generic-Id-SNMP | Check the bandwidth of the interface. For each checks the name of the interface will appear | | |
Traffic-Generic-Name | OS-AIX-Traffic-Generic-Name-SNMP | Check the bandwidth of the interface. For each checks the name of the interface will appear | | |
Traffic-Global | OS-AIX-Traffic-Global-SNMP | Check the bandwidth of interfaces. For each checks the name of the interface will appear | | X |
Discovery rulesβ

OS-AIX-SNMP-Traffic-Name | Discover network interfaces and monitor bandwidth utilization |
OS-AIX-SNMP-Disk-Name | Discover the disk partitions and monitor space occupation |
OS-AIX-SNMP-Processes-Name | Discover processes and monitor their system usage |

Prerequisitesβ
SNMP Configurationβ
To use this pack, the SNMP service must be properly configured on your AIX SNMP
server. Please refer to the official documentation from IBM:
Network flowβ
The target server must be reachable from the Centreon poller on the UDP/161
SNMP port.
- Online License
- Offline License
- Install the package on every Centreon poller expected to monitor AIX SNMP resources:
yum install centreon-plugin-Operatingsystems-Aix-Snmp
- On the Centreon web interface, on page Configuration > Monitoring Connectors Manager, install the AIX SNMP Centreon Monitoring Connector.
- Install the package on every Centreon poller expected to monitor AIX SNMP resources:
yum install centreon-plugin-Operatingsystems-Aix-Snmp
- Install the AIX SNMP Centreon Monitoring Connector RPM on the Centreon central server:
yum install centreon-pack-operatingsystems-aix-snmp
- On the Centreon web interface, on page Configuration > Monitoring Connectors Manager, install the AIX SNMP Centreon Monitoring Connector.
Configurationβ
- Log into Centreon and add a new host through Configuration > Hosts.
- Fill the Name, Alias & IP Address/DNS fields according to your AIX SNMP server settings.
- Apply the OS-AIX-SNMP-custom template to the host.
When using SNMP v3, use the SNMPEXTRAOPTIONS Macro to add specific authentication parameters
More information in the Troubleshooting SNMP section.
Mandatory | Macro | Description |
---|
| SNMPEXTRAOPTIONS | Configure your own SNMPv3 credentials combo |
How to check in the CLI that the configuration is OK and what are the main options for?β
Once the plugin is installed, log into your Centreon poller's CLI using the
centreon-engine user account (su - centreon-engine
) and test the plugin by
running the following command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins//centreon_aix_snmp.pl \
--plugin=os::aix::snmp::plugin \
--mode=cpu \
--hostname=10.0.0.1 \
--snmp-version='2c' \
--snmp-community='my-snmp-community' \
--warning-average='80' \
--critical-average='90' \
--use-new-perfdata
The expected command output is shown below:
OK: All CPUs usage are OK | 'cpu.utilization.percentage'=9000%;80;90;0;100 'core.cpu.utilization.percentage'=9000%;;;0;100
All available options for a given mode can be displayed by adding the
--help
parameter to the command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins//centreon_aix_snmp.pl \
--plugin=os::aix::snmp::plugin \
--mode=cpu \
--help
All available modes can be displayed by adding the --list-mode
parameter to
the command:
/usr/lib/centreon/plugins//centreon_aix_snmp.pl \
--plugin=os::aix::snmp::plugin \
--list-mode
