Windows Services Check
I have found where I can monitor services for a device and have set up a test to monitor services on the windows device. Is there a way to set this as a datasource? That way I can do the AppliesTo scripting and have specific devices being monitored for specific services they are running? I have about 80 devices and configuring Service Alerts for each of them would take a bit of time, I'm trying to be more efficient.119Views2likes4Comments
More advanced methods of authentication for Website Checks
We would like to ability to easily authenticate into SaaS products where you have to enter a username and password and click the "Login" button or hit Enter. These days, it seems ADFS and SAML are becoming more popular and the vendors are just redirecting a login page straight to our own SSO site. So the website checks never trigger alerts because you can get to the SSO login page, but after that the application is broken which is really what we want to monitor. Is that something in the pipeline for website checks in LogicMonitor? If not, it would be great to see that. Maybe some way to identify the username, password fields on the page with the credentials stored in properties and the ability to define whether to click a Login button or submit an "Enter" key press.62Views0likes2Comments

Support for TLS 1.1 & TLS 1.2 with strong ciphers
We recently ran into an issue where we are unable to monitor one of our web apps due to the lack of support for TLS 1.1 and 1.2 with strong ciphers. My company would like to see support extended to include the following ciphers: ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 (Only supported in TLS v1.2) ECDHE-RSA-AES256-GCM-SHA384 (Only supported in TLS v1.2) ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA384 ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA384 ECDHE-RSA-AES256-SHA ECDHE-ECDSA-AES256-SHA AES256-GCM-SHA384 (Only supported in TLS v1.2) AES256-SHA256 AES256-SHA42Views1like2CommentsServices - Make ##SERVICERESPONSE## available to Overall alerts
I would love it if we could reference ##SERVICESRESPONSE## on an overall alert. We don't deliver alerts for singular test location failures, since our mandate to only notify on systemic issues across all test locations. So the question will probably, which response to include in the event there are differing responses? Why not include all of them! Or only include the first one in the test location array for that service. Or pick a random one. Or arbitrarily decide certain failure reasons have a "higher" priority than others and choose the "highest" one.36Views2likes3CommentsProperty-based Windows service monitoring
I recently published CGYKT4. In this DataSource, a groovy script checks for the presence of the custom.MonitoredServices property. If the value is "SYN_Windows_Basic_Services" then the script replaces that with a hard-coded set of standard services. If custom.MonitoredServices contains any comma-spearated list of services, then the script just uses those. Finally, if custom.MonitoredServices contains "SYN_Windows_Basic_Services" and a comma-separated list of services, then the standard list of services is added to the values from the property. Once the list of services is determined, the script checks if those services exist on the target device. If so, an instance is created and the script generates an alert if the service is not running.34Views0likes2CommentsJSONPath Expression Filter support for Web Service Checks
Support confirmed that currently JSONPath filter expressions are not supported in Web Services checks. So this is going to be JSONPath expressions that contain: ?() This functionality is supported by Device Datasources, so I can't imagine this is too difficult to implement for Services.31Views0likes1CommentGather and store more relevant WMI data for auto-grouping and category population
During the initial and periodic device auto-discovery tasks, there should be far more information stored about each device. This information should be easily accessible from the device information page and populated with data such as "Installed Programs", "Installed Features", "Running Services", "Domain Role", etc. This information could then be used to auto-group devices. For example, I should be able to create an auto-discover rule that automatically grabs all Domain Controllers based on the system.installedservices and system.installedfeatures categories. There is no reason I should have to manually move this server that is clearly a Domain Controller into my group labeled "Domain Controllers". This approach would allow administrators to "set it and forget it" instead of having to be hands-on every time a new device is added or discovered. This data can be easily populated from standard WMI classes: system.installedservices = win32_services.displayname system.serverfeatures = win32_serverfeature.Name Please help me organize my devices automatically. We have too many machines in too many environments to manually sort them all into groups.28Views0likes3Comments
