Issue with threshold permissions in new UI
Starting with portal v207, there are some updates to the "Settings > Users and Roles" page of the new UI. These changes include a new permission for modifying group-level thresholds. This new permission can be found within the role configuration in section "Permissions > Modules > Access Groups > Resources: Group Threshold". This permission did not previously exist for roles before portal v207. When the portal upgrades to v207, any custom roles which previously had permissions to modify thresholds will no longer be able to do so. I confirmed with LM support that this is expected. This affects ALL threshold changes, not just group-level thresholds like the name of the permission suggests. So FYI for other LM admins out there, once you update to portal v207 you may need to manually update any roles which should have access to modify thresholds so that they include the permission I mentioned above.SolvedMatt_Whitney3 months agoAdvisor109Views11likes2Comments- Anonymous4 months ago75Views8likes2Comments
Issue with time-based thresholds in UIv4
In UIv4, I am unable to set time-based thresholds which were possible in UIv3. Time-based thresholds are still supported by UIv4, but are much more limited. For example, lets say I want to exclude the time window of 08:00 - 09:00 from alerting for a certain threshold. I could use a time range of "09:00 to 08:00", which would effectively exclude 08:00 - 09:00 from alerting without needing to set SDT. In UIv4 setting that time-based threshold is not possible. If I select 09:00 as the starting-time for the threshold, the only options available as the end-time are 09:15 and later. Which means setting a threshold of "From 09:00 to 08:00" is not possible unless I switch back to UIv3.Matt_Whitney4 months agoAdvisor34Views5likes1CommentCannot edit resource properties

UIv4 alert tuning is a great improvement over UIv3 because of the ability to filter by DS name. It's the only piece of UIv4 that I choose to use over UIv3. However, there is still a big problem with it: DS name != DS name. Every DS has two names, the name and the display name. The name must be unique and usually is one word (though interestingly doesn't have to be). The display name does not have to be unique. This is a good thing because some DSs while having different names and gathering data differently represent the same family of data. Count how many DSs are for CPU. It's nice that they can all share the same name (though because of development happening across years/decades with different developers it isn't consistently done. I'm ranting; back on topic...) When you search for a datasource, you cannot search by unique name, but only by display name. So if you want to modify a threshold for one datasource and there are two others with the same display name, it can be really difficult to tell which datasource you're editing. Consider this case: I need to modify the thresholds for VMware_vCenter_VMSnapshots. Which one is it? Hint: the other is "VMware_vSphere_VMSnapshots". Can you tell which is which? LM: Give us the option to display the module's unique name in the table Give us a checkbox that will turn on display of the module's unique name in the search results. Those who don't care won't turn it on, but for those who do we can turn it on and not have to guess which module we're customizing thresholds for.Anonymous6 months ago63Views8likes5Comments- David_Bond7 months agoProfessor50Views0likes1Comment
Issues with new dynamic filtering feature of UIv4 Dashboards
I really like the new dynamic filtering feature in the UIv4 Dashboards page, I think it really adds a lot more usability/flexibility to dashboards and its probably my favorite thing so far about Uiv4. Having said that, I did notice a few issues after playing around with it: only System and Auto properties are available for filtering. Would be great to allow custom properties to be available as well Would like to be able to save filter “Views” across multiple dashboards, instead of having them need to be created for each dashboard Would like to have saved filter Views available to all users once created, not just the user which created the filter View Internal Websites are being shown on the dashboards, even when filters are set for properties which do not exist on those internal website checks filtering works fine for Resources, but unintended Website checks are being included Only seems to be including Internal Website checks, not External checksSolved75Views4likes4CommentsSLA Widget instance limit in UIv4 Dashboards - no error message when exceeded
The SLA widget (unfortunately) has a 2000-instance limit. In UIv3, when the limit is exceeded the widget will show an error message saying “instance limit of 2000 is exceeded”. So this at least tells me what the issue is. In UIv4, when the instance limit is exceeded for an SLA widget it just says “NaN” with no specific error message. It should at least show the same error message as before so users know why the widget is not populating.54Views7likes0CommentsIssue with SLA Widget in UIv4 Dashboards Page
I noticed that in the UIv4 Dashboards Page, SLA widgets round the calculation for SLA percentage up to the nearest whole number. There is no way to adjust this either. In UIv3 the SLA widget showed 3 decimal placed, for example 99.999% uptime. In Uiv4 it will just say 99% uptime. This is not enough detail for a lot of our customers who have requested us to send them SLA uptime dashboard reports. If they started getting rounded whole numbers for uptime values instead of the 3 decimals they are used to, I am sure we would start getting complaints. Please fix the SLA widget in UIv4 to show 3 decimal places like it does in UIv356Views6likes1CommentThanks LM for needlessly taking away simple functionality
Has anyone been clicking on the resource button in the left hand menu only to find that it’s not doing anything? Well, it actually is doing something, but not what you expect? Yep, that’s right, LM could find no better way to stuff in the resource explorer than to make the old resources button not actually do anything except pop up another menu item. Why did they decide to stuff this sub-menu where a button used to be? Now clicking the button doesn’t navigate anywhere. Why not just add another “page” to the menu bar? You already have a way of handling when there are too many items in that bar. Ineed the ability to turn that off for certain users. Where is the RBAC control? If you can’t give me RBAC, at least give me the ability to reorder the items in that bar. The menu pops out on mouseover. Which means that no matter when or how you click on the original button’s location, it won’t do anything. Which means, if you put an <a href> anchor around that button again pointing to the old one, you can solve this entire frustration. Man, i thought I’d give Uiv4 a try today. Guess i gotta give it another year.SolvedAnonymous9 months ago452Views16likes21CommentsReports UIv4 now available!

We are experiencing a very weird bug with the SDT function in UIv4. When selecting any date before “winter time”start, it works just fine (as long as we use 12H format…Why can’t we choose between 12 and 24?). Also UTC shouldn’t be affected by winter time. Here you see that we can easily put an SDT as expected When trying to put an SDT after winter time starts (29th of October) we are unable to directly write the time, like we did in the gif above. When trying to write 10:00 it just increases the number until it changes the date and we have to go back to select the right date. Also we get an error saying that the format must be HH:MM, which it clearly is but we are still not allowed to put an SDT on it in UIv4. All of this works just fine in UIv3.85Views1like2CommentsNew Settings Beta!
Welcome to the new Settings Beta! The new Settings page offers the same great functionality in the legacy UI with some new items that unlock powerful capabilities such as HTTP OAuth 2.0, Event Driven Ansible, and improved navigation. Your feedback is extremelyvaluable to us so please feel to chime in. What’s changed in Settings v4? Improved Navigation The first thing you might notice after enabling the settings preview is that it has a familiar structure in the left-hand navigation with an updated feel. The improved settings navigation comes with functionality to: collapse/expand core features in the navigation list along with filtering and sorting across the different settings areas. Audit Logs A couple of noteworthy mentions in Audit Logs is a more readable table structure with an easier to use Filter. You’ll notice that you can see much more information in the description with an arrow to expand more details at the end of the description. Account Information Account Information has three main paths: Portal Information, Portal Settings, and Financial. You’ll notice when you want to edit information that the controls will look different such as a pencil and when adding contacts information you don’t need to save each row. Contacts (previous UI) was renamed to Portal Information which more accurately describes its content. Portal Settings now contains contact information Financial has the same billing and payment information as before but with an easier to read structure with the familiar edit controls. Usage (Beta) This is an exciting new capability that lets you visualize LM license usage. Right now LM Logs and APM Metrics are supported if you’re using those products today. LM Logs - you’ll notice a “Products” dropdown that lets you select the product you want to view data for. At a glance, you’ll see month-to-date usage, can select some top usage analysis queries, and view cumulative usage. All of this data is filtered by the month and has control. One cool thing about the cumulative usage graph is that it has some forecasting ability which can be helpful for spotting potential overages. APM Metrics contains a combined view along with APM Push Metrics and APM OpenMetics. All views have the same visuals, controls, and functionality as the LM Logs product More products coming to Usage in future releases! Alert Settings Alert Settings should feel very consistent with improved readability. You’ll notice filtering capability added to Root Cause Analysis and External Alerting. Collectors Collectors page has a familiar table layout and controls to other pages in Setting creating a theme of consistency. Under the collector tab you have a new ability to filter by all collectors or collector groups. Within the table you have the ability to view if an escalation chain is configured in the table. If an escalation chain is found it will send the name. The collector actions for each collector are now in the a new bottom panel, with the info, resources, SDT and websites tabs The collector bulk actions can be performed now by selecting collectors (checking the boxes) and applying the bulk action from the menu when it shows up. (In UIV3, there was a button called actions present all the time) In the legacy UI, manage flows were hidden under the support button in the manage form, now these are accessible from the collectors main page bottom panel. The previous add flow had at least four modals, we have now reduced it to single modal for confirmation on save. The collector status screen was a blob of data on a single page earlier, now this information has been organized into a table that can be filtered and in a more readable format. The collector updates tab now shows a table with an update type column that helps users see what status the updates are in, (very similar to the SDT tab in alerts), showing the active/ scheduled NetScans. OpenTelemetry Collectors OpenTelemtry was introduced in the legacy Settings page allowing you to consume your application traces. Integrations We’re very excited to announce Event Driven Ansible and OAuth2.0 for Custom HTTP in the new Settings. Event Driven Ansible allows you to unlock the power of alerts and take remediation actions based on an alert. You’ll notice that the Integrations page has a familiar structure to the legacy UI with filters and tabs. All the controls for the table were moved to the left side column called “Actions” OpsNotes OpsNotes carries over the same structure from the legacy UI with updated filtering controls to help you find what you’re looking for with ease. LogicModules Updates to the LogicModules settings coming in a future release. Message Templates Message Templates introduces a new left hand navigation that allows you to filter by alert type. When an Alert Type is selected you’re able to define the alert and clear message with fewer clicks through the gear icon. NetScans NetScans page has a familiar table layout and controls to other pages in Settings, creating a theme of consistency. Under the collector tab you have a new ability to filter by all collectors or collector groups. NetScans no longer opens up with a blank right panel, it shows all the NetScans so the user has the option to view information by clicking the manage icon. User Access User Access has a new left hand navigation that contains some filtering options to help you find what you’re looking for. You can filter by groups and by users with the updated UI controls.Ted_Johnsen12 months agoProduct Manager352Views22likes26CommentsNew "Logs Tab" on each Device

Hello! I currently use Ansible to schedule a task which updates Windows on the servers we manage, roughly 300 in Azure. These servers are spread throughout the world in many different time zones. In my playbooks for configuring the “patching task”, I would like to set a SDT in Logic Monitor. Currently there is no “time zone” setting with the Logic Monitor Ansible module. I’m sure I could get around this by doing some sort of math on the date / time within the SDT playbook. Does anyone do anything like this? Some other notes about our setup: We have a mix of Windows Server 2022 and Windows 11 VMs Azure Automation / Update Management does not support Windows 11 VMs Time zones on the servers are local to the region they are deployed in Our patching schedule is … staging 1 week after “patch Tuesday” production 2 weeks after “patch Tuesday” Because of this, reoccurring SDTs need to be reconfigured twice a year, say when the first of the month falls on a Wednesday Sometimes patching needs to be rerun, so it would be nice to SDT the servers / device groups whenever needed Thanks!

Here are the UIv4-specific Release Notes for UIv4 (from https://www.logicmonitor.com/release-notes/v-192-release-notes): Enhancements Removed text limits for all report types. You can find report-specific threshold limits in the documentation for each report type. For more information, seeReports New UI Overviewin the product documentation. Added validation to the dynamic thresholds configurationformfields that will prevent users from saving entries with invalid values, such as negative values in lower and upper bound fields. Fixed Issues If you receive a 401 status on a new UI page, you may need to refresh the page and log back into your LogicMonitor portal. Optimized the behavior of the stack view for Graphs to improve the representation of the data. Previously, the stacked graph view was difficult to use because some datapoints overlapped over others. Made the Graphs tab the default view for Resources and DataSources. You should no longer see a plus sign (Add new) button on the Instances tab for a module when Active Discovery is set to Yes. When you enable OpsNotes, you should see them applied across all groups, resources, and so on, so that you don’t have to enable it each time. Fixed an issue to ensure that OpsNotes created in the Legacy UI display as expected in graphs and lists after you enable the new UI. Fixed an issue where Test Script for Groovy scripts in PropertySources was not working. Fixed an issue to prevent users from creating static thresholds that did not contain at least one severity value, and from creating more than one All Day threshold. There are now checks to ensure that you include at least one severity field, and you will not be able to Save an All Day threshold if one already exists.28Views2likes0CommentsDatapoint Analysis now available!

I noticed that there is a “plus” icon next to nearly everything in the new UI, from resources to logicmodules to instances. The plus icon focuses similar to the eyeball in UIv3. If I select the “plus” icon next to an instance or datasource, it focuses only on that and the rest of the modules/instances on the device are hidden. I can’t think of any use case for that, and I could see it causing users to get “lost”. I would rather see the focus option removed from the instance/datasource level, and only be an option on the device or group level like it was in UIv3.Matt_Whitney2 years agoAdvisor100Views4likes16CommentsUIv4 - Cleared alerts not showing duration in began column
In UIv4, I noticed that in the Alerts tab of the Resources page does not show the duration an alert was active when you are looking at historical alerts (cleared filter set to Yes). Instead it shows the amount of time ago in hours the alert was reported at (which is redundant since timestamp is already shown in the column). In UIv3 I am used to being able to easily see the duration a historical alert was active within the “began” column of the Alerts tab. It shows up in parentheses next to the timestamp the alert began and is useful for seeing if alerts were “flapping” among other uses. Below is an example of what the column looks like in UIv4 vs UIv3.This example alert was triggered 6/7 at 15:05 and cleared after 5 minutes. The UIv3 version is more useful.

Hello, and welcome to LogicMonitor’s Beta for WinRM non-admin automation! At Logicmonitor we are constantly pushing the envelope on security. In our endeavor to further reduce the attack surface of our customers we are proud to bring to you the beta program for monitoring windows devices using least privilege. This beta would also allow you to try out our WinRM based collector. Goal for the beta Validate and test windows monitoring with WinRM based collectors running with least privilege in your environment. We suggest the following operations to test out the non-admin automation 1. Set up a normal WMI based windows collector to monitor your windows devices. 2. Set up at least 10 the WinRM based beta collector by following the instructions in the support page. Ensure that the collectors are not running under admin privilege after completing the setup. 3. Move your devices from the WMI based collector to the beta collector to confirm that the WinRM beta collector fulfills your windows monitoring needs. 4. Test out WMI, Powershell and perfmon datasources Timeline The beta has started and will run Through Sept 30, 2023. Documentation Since the process to install a WinRM collector is slightly more tedious than a normal LM collector, we advise you to go through the documentation before setting it up. Documentation for the beta is available at https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/configuring-winrm-for-windows-collector and updated as questions come in, or as things are added/fixed. Note: The beta is available in EA collector 34.100 and later. All you have to do is follow the steps in the support documentation above to install the WinRM collector.

I noticed that when I have a resource group selected and “focused” on so I can only see that group, there is strange behavior when I then select the Manage button for that group. If I select the Manage button while focused on a group, it will “unfocus” the resource tree on the lefthand side. If I cancel out or save changes made on the Manage page then it will “refocus” the resource tree on that group. But it should not be unfocused while the Manage page is open.Matt_Whitney2 years agoAdvisor17Views1like3CommentsUIv4 - Disabled Datasources no longer grouped separately
In UIv3, any datasources that are disabled at a group-level will stop polling and an instance group called “Disabled Datasources” will appear under the resource that had the datasource applied at the bottom of the datasource list. This is useful for easily seeing if a device has any datasources disabled, and its also useful for hiding datasources if we don’t need/want them to clutter up the resource. In UIv4, if I disable a datasource at a group-level it will stop polling but will not be moved to a “Disabled Datasources” group. This can create confusion as to why a datasource is not polling, and it creates clutter on the resource. Please add the Disabled Datasource instance group functionality to UIv4.Matt_Whitney2 years agoAdvisor51Views5likes1CommentUIv4 - Strange behavior with alert rows within Alert tab of Resources page
I noticed an issue with the alert rows within the Alerts tab on the Resources page. Each alert row has a clickable link for the Resource, LogicModule, and Instance columns. When the link is clicked it will “refocus” the resource tree so only the selected object is visible. This works fine for the Resource column since it just focuses on the resource, but when the link is clicked in the LogicModule or Instance column it focuses on only that individual instance. This seems strange and there’s not really any scenario where I would want to focus the resource tree on theinstance level and not see any other instances/datasources on the device. In UIv3, only the Resource column has a clickable link. And instead of refocusing the existing page, it opens a new tab focused on the instance with the active alert. I think this behavior is better and less likely to cause confusion with end users who are investigating individual alerts.Matt_Whitney2 years agoAdvisor9Views0likes0CommentsUIv4 - Alert Tuning tab shows truncated description for datapoints
I noticed that in UIv4, the Alert Tuning tab does not show the full Description for a datapoint. It shows a truncated snippet of the Description instead and the column has to be manually expanded if you need to see the full thing. In UIv3 this column wraps, so each row is wider but you can see the whole Description so it is much more usable. I noticed many fields truncate in UIv4 instead of wrapping (properties under the Info tab is another example). It would be much better for the columns to wrap so that the full value can be seen like it is in UIv3.Matt_Whitney2 years agoAdvisor31Views7likes0CommentsUIv4 - Alerts tab on Resources page does not show alert count
In UIv3, the Alerts tab on the Resources page would show the total number of alerts active for a resource or group when selected. This lets you easily see a count of how many alerts are active for a given resource or group. InUIv4, there is no count included in the Alerts tab of the Resources page. You can still see how many alerts are active if you look at the very bottom under “All Results Shown”, but this is not as intuitive.Matt_Whitney2 years agoAdvisor16Views2likes0CommentsUIv4 unable to use Global Definition button to view datasource from Resources tree
In UIv3 when you select a datasource/instance associated with a resource, there is a button you can click to jump to the datasource(edit global definition). In UIv4 this has been replaced with a “Global Definition” button which you can click from a dropdown if a datasource/instance is selected. When I try and click on that button however, I get sent to the below URL which brings me to the Datasources tab of the Settings page as expected, butwith no datasource selected. https://<lmaccount>.logicmonitor.com/santaba/uiv3/setting/index.jsp#datasources/undefinedMatt_Whitney2 years agoAdvisor17Views0likes0Commentsadding Monitored Instance and UI Fields
When I add monitored instances to a resource (MultiPing-) in the new UI, the instance group needs to be selected each time. I feel it would be more efficient to have @default automatically selected.Currently the new interfaces requires an extra selection step. Thanks for considering this.44Views6likes1CommentUpdates and Progress with UIv4
Hello! We want to thank you for all of the feedback that you have provided and update you on the progress we have been making. We have been working diligently to resolve any issues that have been reported. Most importantly, we understand that you’ve been experiencing slowness in the new UI. We apologize for any inconvenience, and want to assure you that we are working to improve the performance as quickly as possible. Our team of developers have identified some root causes for the slowness and are actively working on the fix. We are conducting thorough testing and benchmarking to ensure that any solutions implemented resolve the issues appropriately. There are also some additional upcoming improvements that we have implemented based on the feedback we’ve received: For Configs: A full screen option is now available and more information will load so that you can see more of the file. We’ve improved the search functionality so that you can search the entirety of the config file. You can now click anywhere in a line for the Resource Tree for easier navigation. For SDTs: Anyone with access to the SDT functionality will be able to see the new icon in the top right corner. Duplicates have been removed from view to avoid confusion. Anomaly Detection + Forecasting Improvements: We have streamlined the experience so that you can view anomaly detection and forecasting functionality with fewer clicks. And more small improvement fixes! These fixes will be available in v186 and 187. If there are any specific issues that you want to follow up on, please use this thread. Otherwise, create a new thread for any issues so that we can track them accordingly. Thanks!

Alerts in UIV3 shows them in 24H format,but in the new UIV4 it shows them in 12H AM/PM format. This happens when viewing alerts on a resource or instance, but when going to the alerts page all alerts are in 12H format on both versions. This is from UIv3 (Resources page) This is from UIv4 (Resources page) -HDescription field not showing as tooltip when hovering in new UI
In the previous UI when you set a Description field on a device or group, you could hover over the group and see the description value as a tooltip. In the new UI that does not show up. We have found use out of this tooltip feature especially with location groups, etc.Matt_Whitney2 years agoAdvisor22Views4likes1Comment
