February 2026 monthly summary for the centreon/centreon-plugins repository focused on NRPE CI stability and upgrade efforts. Delivered stability fixes for NRPE packaging, enhanced CI automation through workflow refinements, and upgraded the NRPE package to 4.1.3. These changes improved deployment reliability, reduced CI flakiness, and expanded capabilities for end users and operators.

Month: 2025-11 — Focused on repository hygiene, baseline readiness for release cycles, and governance for centreon/centreon-plugins. No new user-facing features delivered this month; administrative housekeeping established a baseline for upcoming plugin updates.

September 2025 performance summary focusing on business value and technical achievements. Delivered targeted CI/CD improvements across two critical repos to strengthen release reliability, traceability, and automation. Key changes: - centreon/centreon-collect: fixed CI Release Workflow Correctness by (1) replacing COMPONENTS_OSS with COMPONENTS_COLLECT to target the correct collection components, (2) declaring NEW_MAJOR_VERSION and NEW_MINOR_VERSION to prevent unbound variable errors, and (3) aligning the collection loop to ensure the release identifies and processes the correct components. - centreon/centreon: added NEW_MAJOR_VERSION and NEW_MINOR_VERSION environment variables to the release-new GitHub Action to capture updated version information during releases, enabling more granular version control for future releases. Impact: - More reliable release automation, fewer release-related failures, and improved traceability of version information across releases. Technologies/skills demonstrated: - GitHub Actions and CI/CD practices - Environment variable management and release scripting - Component collection logic and release workflow correctness

July 2025: Key outcomes for centreon/workflow-centreon include delivering two core capabilities—Release Versioning and Tracking and CI/CD Workflow Improvements with Environment Orchestration—driving improved release traceability, deployment reliability, and multi-environment consistency. Release Versioning consolidated major version bumps across files with updates to 27.08, 27.10, and 27.11. CI/CD Workflow Improvements enhanced GitHub Actions to determine release scope (cloud vs on-prem), release stability levels, and introduced a reusable get-environment workflow for environment variable synchronization and release parameter inference. Fixed critical get-env issues and synchronization gaps, stabilizing environment configuration across branches. Impact: reduced manual overhead, faster release cycles, and higher confidence in multi-tenant deployments. Technologies/skills demonstrated include Git/GitHub Actions, CI/CD orchestration, environment variable management, and versioning strategy.

June 2025 focused on stabilizing release automation and CI/CD reliability across two repos: centreon/workflow-centreon and centreon/centreon-plugins. Delivered versioning consolidation, enhanced deployment environment detection, and CI/CD cleanup. Demonstrated strong Git operations, release engineering, and YAML-based CI/CD work; resulted in clearer release cycles and reduced misconfiguration risk.

May 2025 focused on release governance for centreon/workflow-centreon. Delivered structured Release Version Milestones to mark progress toward the 25.12 release. No functional code changes were introduced this month; emphasis was on release planning, traceability, and alignment with the product roadmap.

March 2025 monthly summary focusing on stabilizing CI/CD pipelines and hardening release automation across the centreon repositories. Efforts prioritized reliability and maintainability in CI workflows and release processes, delivering measurable business value through faster, more predictable builds and releases.

February 2025 monthly summary for centreon-plugins: Focus on stabilizing CI pipeline branch detection in the centreon-plugins repository, delivering a fix that improves release/hotfix reliability and version accuracy across testing environments. The work reduces branch resolution errors and contributes to smoother release cycles, aligning with business goals of faster, more reliable deployments.

Month: 2024-11 | Centreon Centreon-Collect – Performance Review. This period focused on strengthening the testing infrastructure by aligning the gorgone testing Dockerfiles with the latest stable package versions across Debian bookworm, bullseye, and jammy. The change improves test stability, ensures access to current features, and reduces maintenance drift in test environments.

Summary for 2024-10: Centreon/centreon-collect delivered a critical reliability improvement to Debian stable promotion automation. By removing the conditional gating in the GitHub Actions workflow, promotions to stable for bullseye and bookworm now occur regardless of the release_cloud input, reducing release flakiness and manual intervention. Major bugs fixed: Fixed conditional in the GitHub Actions workflow that gated promotion to stable on release_cloud; ensured promotions for bullseye and bookworm occur irrespective of release_cloud value (commit 0231a89d3b207578839f74288bf9feece1ca3c8b). Overall impact and accomplishments: More reliable and predictable release process, decreased risk of failed promotions, and faster Debian stable promotions. This work reduces operational friction for releases and improves CI/CD resilience in the centreon-collect repository. Technologies/skills demonstrated: GitHub Actions, CI/CD automation, release workflow debugging, cross-target Debian support, and collaborative code review.
