Cisco Stack Switchs
Hi Wanted to know if anyone has a solution to get component level information for the switches in a stack. Ideally I am trying to get serial numbers for the switches that actually make up the stack. All I seem to be able to get is the chassis switch and not any sub switches in the stack. - ThanksFile Size and Folder Monitor.
Hi All. I believe LM is missing an officially supported WinTel File and Directory management DS. It should include the following File Count Monitor to count the number of files in a folder File Size Monitor , aggregate of all files. Last modified File Exists An example that would use all the functions would be something like Clearswift/MimeSweeper. An Internet facing Email gateway appliance. You would have incoming and outgoing folders as well as Quarantine and Delayed. The Folders selected need to be added via a 'monitored instance' leaving the original DS untouched.
Veeam SOBR Offload and Checkpoint removal monitoring
With recent updates to Veeam 12.2, checkpoint removal has been decoupled from the backup job and it now produces alerts within the veeam console when it fails. This is not detected in any current version of LogicMontiors Veeam modules. It also seems that the offload of backups when you have a SOBR configuration are not monitored by LogicMonitor's Veeam modules. We are finding this means we are blind to most of our customers offsite storage as we are not notified of offload failures or checkpoint removal. This means if an S3 bucket fills up in your capacity tier, but the performance tier is still working you will never get an alert in logicmonitor, as the backup job itself is successful, but the offloads and checkpoint removals will fail due to the bucket being at maximum capacity. The offsite copy will fall severely out of date as well since no new backups can offload or copy to capacity tier. We have had to fall back to email alerts to compensate for this. SOBR is the most common setup we see across our customer base these days, and I have a feeling it will only become more prevalent in the future.Automate SDT for connected instances based on topology
When we set a location group or a device in SDT during maintenance, we often get alerts from devices connected to that location via BGP/OSPF/interface connections. I would like to request a feature where if we put a group or device in SDT, then any instances connected to those SDT'd devices via topology are also set in matching SDT. Even if the device the instance is a part of is not included in the original SDT. Other monitoring tools are able to do this out of the box, so I think it's an important feature for LM to prioritize.New F5 SSL cert OIDS
Hi All So as per F5 article K000139507: How-to list traffic certificate expirations using SNMP Published Date: May 4, 2024 https://my.f5.com/manage/s/article/K000139507 Can we get these integrated into the F5 certificate datsource. sysCertificateFileObjectExpirationString .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.1.15.1.2.1.4 example 'Dec 15 01:38:48 2033 GMT' or 'Mar 29 23:59:59 2031 GMT' sysCertificateFileObjectExpirationDate .1.3.6.1.4.1.3375.2.1.15.1.2.1.5 Epoch in seconds '2018223528' or '1932595199' Reason for the update is the existing DS needs to connect to the 443 ports to extract the cert date , where some are internal and some external. The firewalls are all in the way, and being an MSP nobody tells us when they strap a new cert on a VIP anyway ! I tried to remove the port query part and go direct to the oid but cross mapping tables is beyond me. Andy
APC UPS Logicmodule datapoint addition
I'm requesting to please add a pair of datapoints to the Official LM-authored Logicmodule: APC UPS Status (locator NKG6DE) Input voltage .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.3.2.1.0 Input frequency .1.3.6.1.4.1.318.1.1.1.3.2.4.0 There are some locations on our campus where we'd like to track these values. We believe there are periodic variations in them that may be responsible for otherwise unexplainable behavior in certain wiring closet HW. There appears to be UPS capability to mitigate this but we'd like the data these datapoints collect to inform the necessary UPS configurations, and we'd also like to have the data to present to our Facilities Electrician team to help them diagnose and correct house power delivery where appropriate. We are working on this DIY, but we would much prefer to see it released officially so that we can minimize customizations.AWS Monitoring - auto-discover sub accounts of tenant
We have a customer with many sub-accounts underneath their main AWS tenant. The AWS accounts were added to monitoring using the "AWS Organizational Unit" method, and this allowed us to discover all of the accounts. https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/aws-organizational-unit-monitoring-setup However, there is no way for us to click "Manage" on the root AWS group and add newly created accounts after the initial add. With Azure monitoring we can click Manage on the account and select the Subscriptions, but the same thing is not currently possible for AWS monitoring. I would like to request that... add an easy interface for us to add or remove sub-accounts from AWS OU/tenant monitoring. Similar to how Azure Subscriptions can be easily added/removed from monitoring via the GUI add an option for all AWS sub-accounts of a tenant to be automatically discovered so that we don't need to manually add them each time a new account is created under the tenant.UIv4 Dashboards Page - allow slideshow to work with new filtering feature
The new dashboard filtering feature allows us to filter many dashboard widgets by specific properties, such as location. We have a dynamic "site health" dashboard that allows us to see the health of specific locations by filtering on the location property and selecting the desired site from a dropdown. We would like to be able to set up a slideshow using this dynamic dashboard, so the slideshow cycles through different locations from the filters selections. Can we add the ability to set up a slideshow on a single dynamic dashboard, and then cycle through different filter selections from the dropdown instead of cycling through different dashboards? We don't want to have to create a separate dashboard for each site.Specify SNI for Website Checks
I have an Azure Website that is used by our company when our primary website goes down. We call it our DR website. This is done automatically using Traffic Manager. 99% of the time, our main domain points at our real website (I'm already monitoring this). I want to be able to monitor this Azure DR website's certificate to ensure we're alerted when it expires. However because 99% of the time our domain points to our real website and not the DR website, I need to use the DR website's IP for the check. This adds a new problem in that Azure websites share IPs between customers, and use SNI to determine which customer to route traffic to. LogicMonitor's website checks don't provide a way to specify the SNI header. I've tried setting the Host header to our website's domain but that didn't work.
