Asset Management with GLPI and automatically creating the Icinga Config out of GLPI
summary
GLPI 11 becomes the single source of truth: agents push large XML inventories to GLPI, a fields plugin exposes per-host toggles (monitoring, rescan, disable TCP/processes) and a Python generator (fuse queries + scripts) extracts that data daily and writes Icinga config files. The system emails admins a delta link they click to apply changes; deployment of agents uses Ansible. Result: roughly 20,000 checks live, near-zero false alerts, administrators control monitoring without touching Icinga.
