suggtion: Veeam monitoring via REST API
hi, the doco for monitoring Veeam says that only Veeam Backup Viewer access is required, but Backup Administrator is actually required when using the underling PowerShell module. The REST API doesn't require admin privileges, may i suggest updating the LogicMonitor module for Veeam to use the API? https://www.logicmonitor.com/support/monitoring/backup-and-replication-systems/veeam-backup-replication-monitoring https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/backup/powershell/getting_started.html https://helpcenter.veeam.com/archive/backup/120/vbr_rest/reference/vbr-rest.htmlGetting specific datapoints using the REST API
In this post: https://community.logicmonitor.com/archive-13/getting-datapoint-data-via-rest-api-1249 … @Sarah Terry provides information on how to get data for just specific datapoints, reducing load on the API, minimizing network traffic and reducing deserialization load on the client. While this is VERY useful, it is not currently possible to do this for graph data. An example of such a call would be: {{logicmonitor_url}}/device/devicedatasourceinstances/229505122/graphs/-1/data?datapoints=sentpkts …which brings back the default graph data (all datapoints), though this would also work for a specific graph. The advantage of this approach to data fetch is that it permits the retrieval of virtual datapoints. In order to achieve the same benefits, we (Panoramic Data) request that the same datapoint filtering is added to the {{logicmonitor_url}}/device/devicedatasourceinstances/{instanceId}/graphs/{graphId}/data endpoint. Of lesser importance would be other graph API endpoints (e.g. the website graph API endpoint) Thanks in advance! David
API - Device Data Aggregation
On the Get Device Data endpoint we'd like to be able to aggregate the data that comes back in some sort of time window. There is currently the ability to pass the period parameter in order to specify how far back you'd like to pull data from. But we would like to have two extra parameters. One to specify the type of aggregation(SUM, AVG, MIN) and another to specify the time window that we'd like that aggregation to roll up on(1min, 60min). So if we were to request data with a period of 2(hours), an aggregation of AVG, and roll_up_window of 1(min) then we'd expect to get back 120 rows, each representing the average of the values for each minute.
