Every month, Centreon extends its monitoring connector catalog and implements new connectors, allowing you to connect your IT monitoring with always more ITOps tools.
The result: increased visibility and business observability capabilities. We also offer enhancements and fixes on existing connectors.
For April 2026, we’re introducing three new monitoring connectors, multiple improvements and a few fixes on existing connectors.
Many of these improvements are a direct result of the valuable suggestions and ideas from our The Watch community members. We thank Watchers for their significant contribution to the continuous evolution of our software.
Warning: As you may notice, almost all monitoring connectors will appear as updated in the Monitoring Connector Manager. Most of them have been reissued for technical reasons and have not been changed.
You may also read the related documentation, contact our sales team, or post a message on The Watch to learn more.
Reminder: Plugin Packs have been renamed. We are now referring to them as monitoring connectors.
Three new monitoring connectors to discover this month.
Hitachi E Series CMA
The Hitachi E Series is a family of storage arrays offering a scalable, automated storage solution designed to consolidate multiple workloads onto a single platform, featuring data reduction, protection and unified management capabilities. Hitachi also highlights a common architecture with the rest of the VSP family, ensuring a consistent experience as the environment grows.
As part of the Centreon Monitoring Agent (CMA) campaign, we are offering the new Hitachi E Series CMA monitoring connector. It enables monitoring of the Hitachi E Series system efficiency (raidcom), pairs status (pairdisplay), path status (raidcom), pool status and capacity (raidcom), and the quorum status (raidcom).
Linux Libvirt SSH
LibVirt is an open-source virtualization management API and toolkit that provides a unified interface to interact with multiple hypervisors and virtualization technologies, including KVM, QEMU, Xen, VMware ESXi, Hyper-V, and others.
It abstracts the complexity of different virtualization platforms by offering a consistent API, command-line tools (such as virsh), and daemon (libvirtd) to manage virtual machines, storage, and networks.
The Linux Libvirt SSH monitoring connector enables the discovery of virtual machines and the monitoring of their CPU usage, disk I/O statistics, memory usage, network interface statistics and status. This connector also enables the discovery and monitoring of Libvirt storage pools, as well as the discovery and monitoring of Libvirt storage volumes.
Palo Alto firewall API
Palo Alto Networks Firewall is an enterprise-grade next-generation firewall solution that provides advanced threat prevention, application visibility, and network security. It offers deep packet inspection, SSL decryption, URL filtering, and integrated intrusion prevention capabilities.
Palo Alto Panorama is the centralized management platform for Palo Alto Networks firewalls and security appliances. It provides unified policy management, device monitoring, and reporting across all deployed Palo Alto devices from a single console, whether on-premises or in the cloud.
The Palo Alto firewall API monitoring connector enables monitoring of hardware components, high availability (HA), the status of IPSec VPN tunnels, features licensing and the system.
