Upgrade your Collectors to MGD 33.006 before October 03, 2023!
Each year LogicMonitor rolls out the minimum required version (the MGD) for all collectors. It is the most mature version containing the gist of all the enhancements and fixes we’ve added throughout the year. To achieve uniformity, the MGD becomes the base version for all future releases. As we approach the time for the MGD automatic upgrade, we would like to inform you that the GD Collector 33.006 will be designated as the MGD Collector 33.006. This means that all collectors must be upgraded to GD Collector 33.006 or higher. Note: If it is absolutely necessary, we may release security patches. In such scenarios, the MGD version 33.006 will be incremented, and we will keep you informed. Schedule for MGD 33.006: MGD 33.006 Rollout: August 29, 2023 Voluntary upgrade time period: Anytime before October 3, 2023 Automatic upgrade Scheduled: October 3, 2023 at 5:30 am PST Please note that it is critical to upgrade to the new MGD version! On October 03, 2023, any collectors still using a version below MGD will not be able to communicate with the LogicMonitor platform. This is due to the improvements made to the authentication mechanism of the LogicMonitor platform. Actions Required: Look for the MGD rollout notification email from LogicMonitor on August 29, 2023 Upgrade your collectors to GD 33.006 to avoid loss of communication Thank you for your prompt attention to this matter.

SNMP Trap Credentials on Resource Properties Enhancement
HelloLM Community! Just wanted to highlight this enhancement thathas beenreleased recentlyin EA Collector 34.100 to support the use of SNMP trap credentialson resource properties. When using this collector version or newer, you can add snmptrap.* properties on resource/group level for the collector to decryptthe trap messages receivedfrom monitored devices. The credentials are used in the following order: Collector first checks for the set of credential snmptrap.* in the host properties. If the snmptrap.* credentials are not defined, it looks for the set of snmp.* in the host properties. If sets for both snmptrap.* and snmp.* properties are not defined, it looks for the set eventcollector.snmptrap.* present in the agent.conf setting.
