UIv4 instances when there are none?
Perhaps I just wasn't paying attention previously, but does the new UI show everything has an instance even when it's not a multi-instance DataSource now? Is that a recent change? It automatically jumps to the "instance" when you click on the DataSource entry so not really causing an issue but kinda threw me for a loop when I thought a DataSource I was working on was somehow creating instances when it shouldn't. Seems kinda odd and perhaps confusing when training on what instances are if everything looks like it has one.Mike_Moniz6 hours agoProfessor
Groovy4, FastStringService, V.206, etc
I noticed in the detailed release notes for V.206 some discussion of Groovy2 vs Groovy4, because apparently at some point in the future Groovy2 may go away and so Groovy4 will be required. There is some info on mitigation, including updating official modules (with its usual issues, IMO) but also updating custom modules. But it looks like the latest collector doesnt force this now, but just supports both Groovy2 and Groovy4. But I want to move on this as soon as I can. So I did some testing on one of my custom groovy configsources and discovered that when I force the script to use Groovy4 (//!/lib-groovy/v4 on the 1st line) I get one of the errors mentioned in the release notes for V.206 ( https://www.logicmonitor.com/release-notes/v-206-release-notes ). Specifically "Unable to load FastStringService". But unlike some of the other known issues, no workaround or example was given. import groovy.json.*; def JsonSlurper jsonSlurper = new JsonSlurper(); def jsonParsed = jsonSlurper.parseText(responseBody) The first 2 lines are fine, so I believe there is nothing to be changed with how I'm importing it. The docs I see for latest groovy still show I'd use groovy.json.jsonSlurper. But the 3rd line in the code throws the "Unable to load FastStringService" error. So I guess I'm just wondering if the community has dealt with this specific issue, or if there is a document that contains a workaround for this case and others. I know LM will be updating their modules, or maybe they already have (I havent looked; their new Modules UI hurts my brain a bit, not looking forward to the old version under settings going away). But updating all our custom code is going to be painful. Somehow I didnt realize this conversion from Groovy2 to Groovy4 was coming, so I'm trying to figure out when that will be a hard line in the sand. But in the meantime, I'm just wondering if anyone has found a way around this issue? Thanks!Lewis_Beard16 hours agoExpert

Palo Alto application data missing from Netflow
We havebeen able to get Netflow data working for a Palo Alto PA-820 firewall, but we are not seeing the application data show up. Does anyone have any suggestions on next steps we could take? Here is what has been done so far: Netflow profile has been configured on the Palo Alto side and assigned to the interface, including selecting the PAN-OS Field Types to get the App-ID and User-ID (https://docs.paloaltonetworks.com/pan-os/11-0/pan-os-admin/monitoring/netflow-monitoring/configure-netflow-exports) nbarhas been enabled on the collector: # enable netflow support for NBAR, IPV6 and Multicast fields netflow.nbar.enabled=true # enable netflow support for IPV6 fields netflow.ipv6.enabled=true Collector version is 34.003 We’re seeing everything we expect except the app & systemsdata on the Traffic tab for the device: Any thoughts on what we might be missing? Thank you. :-)jhupka5 days agoCustomer Support a Dumpster Fire
Went to create a support ticket, which has to be done on a different website and portal login. Clicking the "GET SUPPORT" button opens an AI chat with the intelligence of a toddler who just drank a red bull and fell down the stairs trying to fly. Is this a joke? Locking support tickets behind a cheap low effort AI chatbot is not how you should be implementing AI. AI needs to be looking at alert trends and datasource outputs for anomalies that might not trigger an alert but should be investigated further. Not for gatekeeping your support people from the customers.Drew_Hawkins5 days agoLogicMonitor Datamart (Free / Open Source)
We have created a free (as in beer), open source LogicMonitor Datamart. It creates a Postgres or SQL Server LogicMonitor Datamart for all common LogicMonitor data types, meaning you can now just use SQL to query all your LogicMonitor data. There are certain limitations around time series data. If you are a .NET developer, check out the nuget here: LogicMonitor.Datamart and the source code on Github . We use this as the basis of our flagship Reporting system for our larger MSP customers. The codebase is mature, and up-to-date to LogicMonitor v211. We don't have a simple deployment wrapper yet, but we want to get community feedback, so we mature the deployment process, some (free) assistance will be provided to set this up for the first five takers. DM me if you are interested. First come first served. If you are not ready to deploy, but generally interested in the concept, please provide feature requests or ask questions in reply to this post.David_Bond5 days ago
dell hosts and idrac combined
tie idrac monitoring to its host, not a separate device | LogicMonitor - 5620 saw this old post and have a similar ask. i'm trying to figure out how to the get idrac alerts combined to the host. from what i can tell dell OME monitoring is simply accepting idrac SNMP traps. i can probably copy those same SNMP traps to logicmonitor collectors. for the tieing it together with the host, i'm wondering if there is a way to add the idrac IP as an additional IP to the host itself? will that mess up other things logicmonitor is trying to do? will that provide enough info for logicmonitor to tie an idrac SNMP trap for hardware failures to the host itself?gdavid166 days agoCreating a Custom Module based on OIDs?
Hi, We have some IBM MQ devices that we want to monitor. We found some MQ items in the LM Repository, but those are for monitoring the MQ application. We also need to monitor the device for CPU and Memory. I was given the following information and told we should see about monitoring them. I'm not sure if I can modify something to get started or if we'd have to create something from scratch. I'm not familiar with creating anything like this and am hoping someone can point me to something similar I can use and modify or or figure out how to create this from scratch. Thanks!

I'm having trouble figuring this out. How would I create a ConfigSource to cat the output of an ubuntu file and store that into ConfigSource? I've been able to get the output if I specify just cat the command and expect the last line in the config buttheir examples don't work when the my shell prompt is "user@hostname~$". https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/logicmodules/articles/creating-a-configsource#general https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/terminology-syntax/scripting-support/groovy-or-expect-text-based-interaction# import com.santaba.agent.groovyapi.expect.Expect; host = hostProps.get("system.hostname") user = hostProps.get("test.user") pass = hostProps.get("test.pass") cli=Expect.open(host, user, pass) cli.send("clear\n") cli.send("cat test.conf\n") cli.expect('~\$') config=cli.before() println config; I've tried many combinations and I'm also not sure on how to remove the shell text information before the command such as the MOTD and system information.Justin_Lanoue7 days ago
