NeophyteCouple of things to think at the start of this journey:
- Make sure you've searched the Exchange. If LM or anyone else wrote a LogicModule for it, it'll likely be there (at least it should be).
- The question i tell everyone to ask themselves is "how would you get at that data today?" With fair certainty, it can be said that LM can monitor just about anything. The real question is whether or not the data can be get at programmatically, and how. If you can get at the data through some sort of scripted mechanism, you can write a scripted DataSource and monitor it in LM. So, is there an API? Do you get the status of the agent-manager connection by logging into a web page? Do you find out the status by logging into a server via SSH and issuing a command? Is it logged somewhere? Sent via SNMP trap? Once you answer that question, you'll be almost done.
