A default host is present : centreon-central. I would like to monitor another local host : localvm1. The host has been added :

It is based on the template generic-active-host. It have a service `Ping : enter image description here

Problem: the host not present in the monitoring section ...

I have rebooted 3-4 times the Centreon VM and nothing has changed.

After a grep in /var/, the host seems to be in the MySQL database (this is the only reference in /var/, so nothing in logs files ...) :

Could you help me ?

Can't find anything in the documentation ...

It's not enough to just add the host, you also have to add services to the host (this is what's actually getting monitored)

EDIT:

And after you make changes to the configuration you need to generate a new config file. If you don't, the configuration won't come into effect.

Go into the menu: Configuration ==> Pollers
Choose the pollers which you want to export configuration
Click on Apply configuration
Check the boxes: Generate Configuration Files and Run monitoring engine debug (-v)
Click on Export

Uncheck the boxes: Generate Configuration Files and Run monitoring engine debug (-v)
Then check the boxes: Move Export Files and Restart Monitoring Engine
Click on Export
