Can LogicMonitor do application level LDAP monitoring?

We dont monitor OpenLDAP natively at this time, though, as with most any sort of monitoring issue, our system can be extended by the use of an external script to do (see the help page on the script collector for more information).n

nOpenLDAP monitoring involves exposing the monitoring statistics on the server:n

nIf a simple script is written that exposes the relevant metrics in key/value pairs we can easily start monitoring and plotting the output. Such a script would output in a format such as:n

    hi.. question

    can your software monitor LDAP servers ?

    openldap specifically

    not at the os or machine level.. but at the application level

    monitrong things like locks and stuff

    shared memory usage

    much like you would monitor a database
