PowerShell Datasource with NonAdmin Collector
Hey can some maybe explain to me what i'm doing wrong. We recently change all our Collector to Non-Admins. We have the Windows Certificates Datasource in place and if i understand correct the Datasource uses PowerShell to trigger Invoke Command from Collector to get Data from Target. I took this PS Template to to build my own Test Datasource. When i test the script against a targetserver i get this message. (I also get the Values from Target Server in stdOutput) Changing ExecutionPolicy on Collector for LocalMachine to Unrestricted didnt change anything Set-ExecutionPolicy : Access to the registry key 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\PowerShell\1\ShellIds\Microsoft.PowerShell' is denied. To change the execution policy for the default (LocalMachine) scope, start Windows PowerShell with the "Run as administrator" option. To change the execution policy for the current user, run "Set-ExecutionPolicy -Scope CurrentUser". At line:1 char:1 + Set-ExecutionPolicy RemoteSigned + ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ + CategoryInfo : PermissionDenied: (:) [Set-ExecutionPolicy], UnauthorizedAccessException + FullyQualifiedErrorId : System.UnauthorizedAccessException,Microsoft.PowerShell.Commands.SetExecutionPolicyComma nd What i dont understand is why my Datasource is running into this Error while the WinCert Datasource isnt eventhough they use the same Invoke Commands. I do have diffrent commands in the script block but this should make any diffrence.Windows ProcessMonitoring
Hello, Stuart_Weenig https://github.com/sweenig/lm/blob/main/ProcessMonitoring/Win_Process_Stats_Groovy/Win_Process_Stats_Groovy.xml Are you not seeing huge RAW numbers for ProcessCPUPercent. You are using the following formula <postprocessorparam>PercentProcessorTime/10000000*100</postprocessorparam> Is that sufficient? Cause we are not factoring CPU logical cores etc. to get a meaningful percentage. Basically I am facing an issue which is described very well here in this post, but none of the solutions worked to get a meaningful percentage. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/11523150/how-do-you-monitor-the-cpu-utilization-of-a-process-using-powershell Need your suggestion as in how you are handing these values in dashboards, because table widgets are not showing these value as they populate under Raw data. See how in a table widget it does not show decimal but in Raw data it does. Looking forward to hear from you. Thanks, Ashish
No Data in Raw Data tab
SQL Server Global Performance --> MSSQLSERVER: Raw Data: No Data Also, SQL Server Databases --> MSSQLSERVER - Databases are discovered but not all data is picked up in Raw Data tab- there is still No Data for some columns. Seems like all the permissions are correct. Checked all the configurations.Linux collectors for Windows servers
A year or so ago there was talk of a Linux based collector in testing that could monitor Windows servers too, is this still planned? We would like to have a minimum number of Windows servers but as long as we have any number of Windows servers, we will always need to also have Windows based Collectors.
Module Toolbox AppliesTo IDE
I have a new DS to build. I decided, for the first time, to try to build it in the module toolbox instead of the UIv3 editor. I guess "Resource Label" is the display name of the module. That's confusing because it's not the name of the resource this will be on. I guess I can see that it's the label that the module will show up with under the resource. But it's not the label of the resource. It's the label of the module. Technical notes - i guess this now supports markup. Which markup? hypertext transfer markup? Extensible markup? Why not markdown (or does it mean markdown when it says markup)? My big problem is with the "IDE". Only developers would think the word "IDE" makes more sense than "wizard". Most of them are Java/Groovy developers who actually need an IDE to develop in a language as overly complicated as Java/Groovy. This thing is not an IDE but a field picker. Functionality that used to exist is no longer there. When I'm developing a datasource, i usually limit the first runs to one device. I opened the "IDE" hoping to find a way to search for the device and limit it to that device. I could do that in the old UI really easily. I don't even know where to start with this new "IDE". The "IDE" does not auto-complete properties. So even if i started typing out "system.display" it doesn't even suggest a complete property name. Once i get "system.displayname == " into the appliesto, it doesn't suggest display names to choose from. I know LM knows how to do this because they do it with the LM Logs query window. Why is there a big help section in the middle of this "IDE" describing what the "true()" convenience function does? I didn't select it and i'm not using it in my appliesto. Why is the "IDE" so big? Why can't it pop out in a drawer from the left side? I was worried that the cancel button might cancel the progress i've made on the DS so far. Speaking of the cancel button, why is there no "you'll lose the progress on your appliesto if you cancel. are you sure you want to cancel?" warning? Why are we still choosing the collection mechanism type (batchscript in this case) before getting ot the collection setting? Why is the discovery group method selected before instances even exist? Did someone actually say, "it makes more sense to go through the effort of moving this above the discovery arguments"? Why are the results for testing active discovery still not shown in groups? I hit save before putting in a name/resource label. It marked them as red, but didn't scroll up to them. It looked like nothing happened when i hit save.
