We have the requirement to actively monitor if the anti-virus software is running on several linux servers. Manually I can add this via the "additional monitoring" option on each host.
But how to do this in an automated way? API, Terraform, Ansible or even shell script?
Hi Admine,
thank you for this hint. Do you have a link to any documentation about this? Or is it a undocumented feature?
I have been checking https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/rest-api-v3-swagger-documentation, but no luck.
NeophyteHi Jeroen,
Yes its not in the documentation as far as i know. But i think you can use the endpoint described in the swagger documentation and then any payload as long as its in the format of the payload described above.
NeophyteYou can use the LogicMonitor v3 REST API to automate the creation of process monitoring instances.
NeophyteEndpoint: POST /device/devices/{deviceId}/addmonitors
Payload structure: JSON object specifying the DataSource, instance parameters, and wildvalue (process name)
AdvisorI think you can clone the LinuxProcesses datasource and make it Active Discovery, use a filter grab whatever it is your are looking for.
NeophyteEasiest way to use a Datasource and then run the discovery for the specific process and create and Applies to include on the required hosts
