Feature Request - New property to indicate monitoring is disabled

The idea with it being a property is that you could create a dynamic group and either list that group on the dashboard or use a big number widget to show the number of disabled devices?

You could write a propertysource to query the API for the “disableAlerting” attribute on the device and store that as a property:

import javax.crypto.Mac
import javax.crypto.spec.SecretKeySpec
import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Hex
import com.santaba.agent.groovyapi.http.*
import groovy.json.JsonSlurper
import groovy.json.JsonOutput

accessId = hostProps.get("alerting_status.id")
accessKey = hostProps.get("alerting_status.key")

def lm_get_request(_resourcePath, _queryParams, _accessId = accessId, _accessKey = accessKey) {
    account = ''
    File file = new File('../conf/agent.conf')
    file.text.eachLine{if (it =~ /company=/){ account = it.split('=')[1].trim() }}
    url = "https://" + account + ".logicmonitor.com" + "/santaba/rest"
    httpClient = HTTP.open(account + ".logicmonitor.com", 443)
    headers=calcSignature('GET',_resourcePath,accessKey,accessId) // calcSignature defined below
    headers.put("X-Version", "3")
    response = httpClient.get(url + _resourcePath + _queryParams, headers)
    responseBody = httpClient.getResponseBody()
    try {allResponse = new JsonSlurper().parseText(responseBody)}
    catch (Exception e) {allResponse = responseBody}
    return allResponse
}

def calcSignature(_verb,_resourcePath,_accessKey,_accessId,_data = '') {
    epoch = System.currentTimeMillis()
    requestVars = _verb + epoch + _data + _resourcePath
    hmac = Mac.getInstance("HmacSHA256")
    secret = new SecretKeySpec(_accessKey.getBytes(), "HmacSHA256")
    hmac.init(secret)
    hmac_signed = Hex.encodeHexString(hmac.doFinal(requestVars.getBytes()))
    signature = hmac_signed.bytes.encodeBase64()
    headers = [:]
    headers.put("Authorization" , "LMv1 " + _accessId + ":" + signature + ":" + epoch)
    return headers
}

lm_get_request("/device/devices/${hostProps.get('system.deviceId')}",'?fields=disableAlerting').each{println(it)}
return 0

1. Create an API token and put in the note that this is for the alerting_status PS.
2. Take the ID and key and store them as properties on your root with the name alerting_status.id and alerting_status.key, respectively.
3. Create a propertysource with appliesto of “alerting_status.id && alerting_status.key”
4. Use the above as the code.
5. Test it then send it.

It should create a property called “auto.disablealerting” with a value of true or false. YMMV, test in sandbox, with great power, yadda-yadda-yadda. FYI, a value of false means that alerting is not disabled. A value of true means alerting is disabled.

My longer post is being moderated. In the meantime: https://github.com/sweenig/lm/tree/main/LMAutomation/Alerting%20Status

Hey @lroussell this would be a good situation to use our Alert Threshold report:

 https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/reports/report-types/alert-threshold-report

It will deliver a report on alert thresholds that override the global thresholds and will also report on which resources have alerting disabled.

I hope this helps!
