LM Linux collector deployment failed to start Logicmonitor watchdog service
- 2 years ago
For Linux Deployments, there are a few possible causes of failure, but so far as an inability to start the watchdog service, this may be the result of SELinux, you may wish to temporarily set permissive mode if SELinux is enabled and check the logs to verify whether it’s blocking actions from the Collector: https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/collectors/collector-troubleshooting/troubleshooting-linux-collectors
You’ll also want to be sure you’re installing to a supported OS if you haven’t already: https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/collectors/collector-installation/installing-collectors#requirements-for-collector-servers
If neither of these serve to resolve the issue, I’d recommend opening a support case so LogicMonitor may investigate further.
