Hi rischfre,

There is an option to define which is:

module_quiet <value>

but If enabled (1) the module will be in silent mode: it will not generate events or trigger alerts, nor will it store data history.

Hi,

Sorry but your solution is not working:

here my Pandora_agent config:

module_begin
module_name USB – Serial name
module_type generic_data_string
module_exec lsusb | grep “PL2303\|USB-Serial”
module_quiet 1
module_description Check USB Name
module_group System
module_end

and here the result on the console:

Create a new module and change the type to async_string

Gracias Francisco, but

as you can see on the picture, even creating a new module in the Pandora_agent with the async_string type issue remains.

module_begin
module_name USB - Serial type
module_type async_string
module_exec lsusb | grep "PL2303\|USB-Serial"
module_quiet 1
module_description Check USB Name
module_group System
module_end

The agent is running version: 7.0NG.758(Build 211105)

the server : 763

both on linux systems

Hi rischfre,

We have seen that the documentation is wrong, since the “module_quiet 1” does not disable the module history, we are going to create an internal documentation ticket to correct this error in the wiki.

For the module not to store historical data you will have to edit the module manually in the console disabling the following parameter “Historical data”.

Best regards,

Víc.

It’s a pitty that there is no automatic way to disable it on Agent level.

Anyway thank you for your answer and investigation
