Manage Multiple Centos Servers via a Web Interface Console

Hi,

I was wondering if anyone knows a Web Interface tool (Installed on a Central Centos Server) in order to manage Multiple Centos Servers. The idea is to add via the Public IP, all of my Centos Machines in to a console in order to send scripts, updates, monitoring health etc. Your helpful is much appreciated on this. I have seen something similar via the ERA Eset Linux Console and Spacewalk .

Many thanks..

You could check out cockpit: https://www.tecmint.com/cockpit-moni...a-web-browser/
I think it comes preinstalled with the full(er) version of Centos 8, if I'm not mistaken, but you can install it also on Centos 7 (not sure about Centos 6, which is going to be EOL soon)

Hi and thanks for your reply. I will setup it in a Centos 7 for sure. Could you please advise if i can manage Centos Servers Version 6.5 via Cockpit?

I don't think there is a cock pit version for Centos 6 after all.
https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/linux...nsole-cockpit:
Given this reliance on systemd, any porting to Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 would offer significantly reduced functionality and, currently, there are no plans for a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6 version.

So if it hasn't shown up on rhel 6, it wouldn't have shown up in centos 6. You should obviously think of upgrading Centos 6 anyhow.
