Opsview 6.8.x End of Support

With the release of Opsview 6.11.0 on February 2025, versions 6.8.x have reached their End of Support (EOS) status, according to our Support policy. This means that versions 6.8.x will no longer receive code fixes or security updates.

The documentation for version 6.8.9 and earlier versions will remain accessible for the time being, but it will no longer be updated or receive backports. We strongly recommend upgrading to the latest version of Opsview to ensure continued support and access to the latest features and security enhancements.

Opsview Agent End of Support

The Opsview Agent is no longer supported or available for download. All new and existing monitoring must now be deployed using the ITRS Infrastructure Agent.

There are three basic approaches to monitoring devices on your network:

This document discusses how to achieve the last item in the list.

Using the ITRS Infrastructure Agent Copied

The ITRS Infrastructure Agent is the recommended agent to install on monitored servers, and supports both Windows and Linux.

The Infrastructure Agent enables communication between systems by running a daemon that Opsview Monitor Collectors can use to interrogate the status of the system. It provides some default plugins (for checking on RAM, CPU, and DISK, amongst others) that Host Templates within Opsview Monitor can make use of straight away, but can be extended with additional plugins.

For installation details on any distribution, see Infrastructure Agent Installation.

Warning

We do not recommend manually installing or upgrading the Infrastructure Agent on servers which run Opsview Monitor itself, as these already have packages managed by Opsview Deploy.
