Physical possession of data without relying on internet connectivity. Ample storage for high-resolution photos without cloud limitations. Acts as a secondary backup, ensuring data availability during cloud outages.13Views2likes0CommentsRe: Shifting to observability
The observability landscape is evolving, with tools like Splunk and LogicMonitor increasingly competing in the same space. This shift is driven by customer demand for unified, scalable, and cost-effective solutions that can provide comprehensive observability across their entire IT infrastructure. As a result, both existing customers and new prospects are evaluating these tools based on their ability to deliver integrated, advanced, and user-friendly observability capabilities.43Views0likes0CommentsRe: Using !snmpdiagnose
Hi Dave, You're correct, you may include specific OIDs that you would like to check following the <host> and separated by spaces, as in the help file you mentioned above. You may also override the other SNNP settings using the "options" parameters before the <host>. Any parameters not specified will be pulled from the <host> Resource or the setting in the Collector Config / agent.conf settings. agent.conf Collector Settings https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/agent-conf-file-configurations ____ Eric Hale Technical Support Engineer II, LogicMonitor Technical Support Austin, TX Accessing LogicMonitor Support Resources https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/about-logicmonitor/customer-support/get-support-resources179Views10likes0CommentsRe: Testing groovy script on local ubuntu machine
One of our devolpers also created a Chrome Extension for debug that helps with syntax highlighting and such… LogicMonitor Script Debug Helper https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/logicmonitor-script-debug/ijojgoccfeggejpbhdahmeijjhpdjklf?pli=1 LogicMonitor Script Debug Helper ...but I would love to see an official VSCode extension as well.76Views7likes0CommentsRe: Let's talk about Swag...baby!
1. I like having both community and general swag. 2. I prefer hats and shirts - but like the ideas for top-level swag. 3. I'm open to collaborative projects, virtual scavenger hunts, or maybe even monthly swag lotteries to earn swag. 4. Swag for leveling up sounds great.4Views1like0CommentsRe: Info and Overview resource tabs

It looks like the script came through. You can add a couple of Write-Host statements to your script to view the value of your variables like so… # Clears the CLI of any text Clear-Host # Clears memory of all previous variables Remove-Variable * -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue #------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ # Initialize Variables $wmi_pass = '##WMI.PASS##' $wmi_user = '##WMI.USER##' $hostname = '##SYSTEM.SYSNAME##' $collectorName = hostname write-host "hostname=" $hostname; write-host "collectorName=" $collectorName; # Insert additional variables here # If the hostname is an IP address query DNS for the FQDN if ($hostname -match "\b\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\b") { $hostname = [System.Net.Dns]::GetHostbyAddress($hostname).HostName } ## This script block should contain all code that you want to execute remotely on the target host. $scriptBlock = { (Get-Command java | Select-Object -ExpandProperty Version).toString() } #------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ try { #-----Determin the type of query to make----- # check to see if this is monitoring the localhost collector, as we will not need to authenticate. if ($hostname -like $collectorName) { $response = Invoke-Command -ScriptBlock $scriptBlock } # are wmi user/pass set -- e.g. are these device props either not substiuted or blank elseif (([string]::IsNullOrWhiteSpace($wmi_user) -and [string]::IsNullOrWhiteSpace($wmi_pass)) -or (($wmi_user -like '*WMI.USER*') -and ($wmi_pass -like '*WMI.PASS*'))) { # no $response = Invoke-Command -ComputerName $hostname -ScriptBlock $scriptBlock } else { # yes. convert user/password into a credential string $remote_pass = ConvertTo-SecureString -String $wmi_pass -AsPlainText -Force; $remote_credential = New-Object -typename System.Management.Automation.PSCredential -argumentlist $wmi_user, $remote_pass; $response = Invoke-Command -ComputerName $hostname -Credential $remote_credential -ScriptBlock $scriptBlock } exit 0 } catch { # exit code of non 0 will mean the script failed and not overwrite the instances that have already been found throw $Error[0].Exception exit 1 }0Views0likes0CommentsRe: Manual topology mapping
From our Support Docs… Topology Mapping Overview | LogicMonitor https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/forecasting/topology-mapping/topology-mapping-overview LogicMonitor’s topology mapping capabilities are focused on layer 2 and layer 3 mapping. Specifically, the LogicMonitor platform leverages Link Layer Discovery Protocol (LLDP), Cisco Discovery Protocol (CDP), Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), Open Shortest Path First (OSPF), and Enhanced Interior Gateway Routing Protocol (EIGRP) to dynamically generate network topology maps that show how data flows among the many resources (switches, hosts, firewalls, routers, and other network components) in your environment.117Views2likes0Comments
