We support Fluentd as a log transport mechanism, which supports ingesting logs from may different types of sources and then sending those logs to LogicMonitor. You would simply need to run Fluentd in your environment and configure the Windows integration in the Fluentd configuration file. An example of how this can be done can be found here

You could use script caching to maintain a running total of the value. Each run of the script would need to read in the value from the cache, add it to the current polled value and then output that sum as a datapoint and also output that sum back to the cache.

That depends on what you're trying to clone. Historical data? No. Devices? Well, you could export a list pretty easily and import that list using a Netscan. You could additionally pull devices from sandbox via API and push them (with their properties) into prod via API.
