Creating a propertySource to populate a NOC widget in a dashboard... need ## in a string.
The NOC widget items have a field that requires me to have the string"##RESOURCEGROUP##" pushed through the JSON into the NOC Item…since I’m using a propertySource to run the script on a schedule (I have a larger VM with a collector with a longer script timeout just for doing deeper scripted work through the API or Full Domain sweep types of things that will take more time), The LM System is going to try to replace that at run time rather than returning the explicit string. Who knows the correct escape sequence for turning that into a string literal on its way into the RestApi Patch? Scripting questions through support is best effort, and I don’t usually come with easy questions.Solved125Views11likes5CommentsRunning a Perl script on an AIX box over SSH?
Hi, We have an old monitoring system that we’re trying to decommission and move everything into LM. The current system connects to an AIX server using an SSH Key, and then runs a perl script that’s located in a particular folder. It then takes the output from that script and determines if there’s an alert condition to tell someone about. I need to move this same functionality into LM. I’m assuming the SSH access part shouldn’t be a big deal. I can either manually setup a username/password or I found into on putting a key in LM somewhere and using that. Once LM can connect to the server, can it launch a script file that’s located on the server? I’m not sure if I need to recreate the script inside of LM, or if it can just tell the server to execute the script it already has. If the script runs remotely, can LM then parse the returned data to determine if something is an error or not? If anyone has any tutorials or anything on how I can start working on this, let me know. I don’t know anything about scripting and LM and so far, don’t really know where to start. Thanks!Solved105Views15likes1CommentUnable to authenticate Rest api with servicenow to get devices
