US-W1:VBA_worker_<instand-id>
Hi Everyone, I would like to ask help because lately we enable cloud monitoring from both our AWS and Azure however we keep seeing this instances that were already terminated or its not active anymore from our either AWS and Azure console. How can we setup LM to stop adding those dead instances automatically. Sample instances below:
Identifying devices which do not have topology connections
I could not find any property or API endpoint to help with this. Has anybody else come across this challenge of identifying which network devices do not have any topology connections mapped? The predef.externalresourceid property will give me the ERIs of a device, but even that doesn't tell you whether the ERIs have been used to make any topology connections.
Connectwise Integration Documentation Missing Step
There is a need to add a step to the Integration Docs (We're doing Connectwise, but I'm sure others need it as well)... https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/connectwise-integration It doesn't state that the escalation time in the alert rules that push to it should be set to "0" where possible to prevent over aggressive updates across the API from occurring. It is stated in the Alert Rule Documentation but isn't stated where the activity it ultimately effects is performed. Support recommended I use the Feedback option in the support sidebar... but that's blackhole with no feedback channel, so I'm posting it here instead.Mysql_Innodb_Percona- official LM module usage
Dear LM gurus, We would like to utilize the official LogicMonitor module Mysql_Innodb_Percona, but we're struggling to apply it and collect data using the module. However, other MySQL-related modules (such as MySQL Connection Status, MySQL Status, and MySQL Table Sizes) are working fine. Do you have any experience with using the official Mysql_Innodb_Percona module? How can we properly apply it and ensure it collects data? Your contribution will be much appreciated!
UIv4 - Instance Thresholds - Consecutive Polls
Good afternoon, Is it intentional that when you set an instance alert threshold, the consecutive polls is also overridden from the global threshold? For example, I'll set an instance level threshold in UIv3 which doesn't have the consecutive poll option and I assume it would just use the global threshold consecutive polls. But when I just checked in UIv4, the consecutive polls was just set to immediately and seemed to alert that way from my testing.Observability roadmap
Hi fellow LM wizards, We want to elevate our monitoring as a big MSP. Did someone try to elevate to monitoring as code and create advanced observability? We are not aware what should be fixed or in place to follow the path to Edwin AI or advanced observability. Is there anyone who can share a roadmap with logical steps? Thank you in advance!OAuth 2.0 Web Check Monitoring
Hello, I have an API healthcheck URI that I need to monitor. At first I thought I could use the external website web check, but it appears as if that only offers 2 authentication methods: basic and NTLM. The resource I need to monitor requires OAuth 2.0 authentication. For this I need to have: OAuth credentials (client ID and secret) x-api-key Scopes Bearer token I am able to create this in Postman, but not sure how best to approach this on the LogicMonitor platform. Any ideas on the best method to monitor a website that requires OAuth 2.0?
How to automate adding "Additional monitoring"
Hi, We have a requirement to run anti-virus software on all servers and need to monitor if it is running :-). Manually I can add this via "Additional monitoring" on our linux servers, but I don't want to do that every time a new server is deployed... Is there any way to automate this, so add it when a new server is deployd? Might be Terraform, Ansible, API-call or shell script. Have been searching on several places, but no luck until now. Any suggestion is highly appreciated. Kind regards, Jeroen
NetApp Alerting
Hi We are trying to setup alerting for Netapp Devices and want to know if these are possible to setup in logicmonitor or not with out of box Datapoint values: Disk failure or Degraded raid group Network port error count (CRC) Interface link down (netapp logical Interfaces-operational_status datapoint shows delta=-1:Warning what does -1 Mean. Interface flapping Net app Quota Assigned to Users we are having netapp Quota but we want to monitor what is the user quota Assigned for the netapp user/user groupDoes a change in a Dynamic Threshold reset the training data?
We rarely use dynamic alerts but someone wanted to test for it. We set something up but accidentally left the polling interval at 5 (50 minutes). It happened to be set that way for a few weeks before we got around to testing an actual event that exceeded the band we set. But it DID work, it just took almost an hour to get the alert. Well today when we realized this, I tweaked the dynamic threshold, mainly just changing it to 1 interval (2 minutes) because we want the shortest possible response. But the engineer also dropped the bandwidth on the port to a super low value at basically the same time. Its been an hour or more, no alerts. But literally all i changed was the qualification to make it happen sooner. So the TL;DR is ..... does a change to a threshold make the training of the datapoint start over? I see references to how long it takes to train, but nothing on whether changes reset the training, or anything that would explain this.
