I've noticed that some systems don't have redhat-lsb or even redhat-lsb-core installed and as a side effect, the ocsinventory agent reports them as 'linux' instead of Centos with the release version. Also, where it is installed and ocsinventory does pick up the name, it doesn't include Centos (pre-7.x) in the 'all Linux' grouping because the name is just CentOS and unlike 'Red Hat Enterprise Linux,...

Hi Ocsinventory http://www.ocsinventory-ng.org/ might be considered if not then I could also recommend Spacewalk http://www.redhat.com/spacewalk/? for something like this both runs well on Centos Per E-mail: per at norhex.com [1] http://www.linkedin.com/in/perqvindesland [2] --- Original message follows --- SUBJE...

Dear OCS fellows, I've been thinking about working on adding power devices knowledge to OCS for years. Following the last Ubuntu Developer Summit, I know have an "excuse" to do so: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/servercloud-p-cloud-power-management My below proposition is related to the above blueprint. So please keep in mind that the target is also to be able to

Anyone know of an OS/Software inventory tool that supports Linux and Windows that is agentless? Thanks, jlc

Hi, Last year, I tried to installed and evaluate the following OSS web base trouble ticketing system. This is for me to track history on our IT related issues. Those that I tried are the PHP Ticket, DanPHPSupport, Epix Power Support, ruQueue, Ticket Express, OTRS, PMOS Help Desk and eTicket. From those, PMOS and eTicket are my top picks. I have problem installing OTRS the last time, so I am

Hello, I have to deploy a monitoring system that need to keep watch on every device/host on my LAN. Can anyone recommend me a tool that in CentOS packages stock ? I know some tool like GLPI but no available CentOS package so I want to looking for something else that already that tested on CentOS. I am running CentOS 5.2 Thanks in advance. Regards,

i've just started looking after a (virtual) centos 5.4 server that's hosted at rackspace and, unsurprisingly, it was set up with all the standard defaults. part of the work i'll be doing involves php and, as i read it, the standard php version with centos 5.4 is php-5.1. if i *wanted* to move up to a more recent version (say, php-5.3), obviously, i'd need to go outside the

Greetings, I have helped host a few applications such as GLPI, OCSInventory, etc etc. using the tarball method and untarring them in /var/www/htom directory. I have never done them though using yum. I was trying to install Trac, Bugzilla etc using yum install method on a Centos 6.2 box. Somehow I am not able to see the respective pages say even using http://localhost/tr...

...tations and discussions about the configuration. Augeas (http://augeas.net), seems to be an interesting option. it's just for templating and generating config, not for the deployment though. * we have also had some talk about the deployment with puppet (http://reductivelabs.com/trac/puppet) and ocsinventory (http://www.ocsinventory-ng.org), and a possible integration into Landscape (https://landscape.canonical.com). * the Power Capping technology has also been introduced: https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+spec/power-capping It has no direct link with NUT, but there is a strong interest in...

i'm reading the lowdown on 3rd party repos with respect to centos here: http://wiki.centos.org/AdditionalResources/Repositories and i have a couple questions and observations. first, the entry for centosplus reads: "Popular packages from this repository include: postfix with database support, a rebuilt kernel with additional drivers & filesystem support, php5 and mysql5."

Hello, Great to see that my patch for new '-o' command-line option has been accepted :) It was the most important missing feature for me. But there are other ones I'd like to see implemented: 1. push options to clients (see push/pull options of OpenVPN) 2. automatically execute routing commands to cause all outgoing IP traffic to be redirected over the VPN (see redirect-gateway of

...did. > > http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2015-February/012873.html I didn't see any indication there that you were planning to turn the /etc/redhat-release file into a symlink. And even if I had I probably wouldn't have thought specifically that it was going to break ocsinventory-ng, although pretty much every unnecessary and arbitrary change breaks something. And besides there's not much reason to think that user comments are ever read on the -devel list. Like this one, for example: http://lists.centos.org/pipermail/centos-devel/2014-June/010940.html -- Les Mike...

So I guess I have redhat-lsb installed on all of my CentOS6 boxes and hadn't noticed that particular breakage before. To be fair, I consider it to be a bug in OCSinventory to not follow a symlink to the contents, but it does point out that any arbitrary change is going to break something that trusted your previous version's functionality. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com

Hi How can I know the hardware info eg: type of memory No need to turn off the machine Thank you

being used to mysql 5.1 on my fedora system, i'm suddenly looking after a centos 5.4 box with mysql 5.0.77. before i start digging into the mysql 5.0-5.1 changelog, do i have a lot to worry about in terms of mentally backing up one version? or is simply upgrading the centos box to mysql 5.1 an option? (i realize that mysql 5.1 is *not* officially supported in centos 5.4.) rday --

Hi, As the number of hosts increases, it's getting harder to keep track of what packages have been installed on each host using yum or rpm. So I am wondering if there's an existing application that helps you keep track of what packages installed on each host.

Hi, Is there a way to find total numbers of Hard disk attached or mounted on remote servers totaling around 200 Servers running CentOS Server and also the number of RAM Chips attached to the system. Any utility or some gui tool from client desktop ? Regards Kaushal

Hello everybody!! I have a big network here with many machines with different operating systems (Linux, Windows 9x/2000/XP and FreeBSD). Currently all of them are authenticated by a Debian GNU/Linux server running SAMBA with LDAP. It works perfectly but I have some problems to block some features from Windows users. I'm looking for some tool to control the user rights around his own station

When the ocsinventory-agent (from epel) runs daily to report the host hardware and software to the central server, it triggers an selinux alert about monitor-get-edid-using-vbe mmaping low memory. This is reported in the GUI SELinux Alert Browser which displays a reasonable-looking bug report. But, when I hit the '...
