Discovery

This plugin can be integrated with Pandora FMS Discovery.

To do so, you must load the “.disco” package, which can be downloaded from the Pandora FMS library:

https://pandorafms.com/library/

Once loaded, Microsoft Azure Compute environments can be monitored by creating Discovery tasks from the Management > Discovery > Cloud section.

The following minimum data will be requested for each task:

• Azure credentials: Connection credentials to the Microsoft Azure API to be used by the task. They must be previously registered in the Pandora FMS credential store.
• Use proxy: Enable to specify a proxy address
• Proxy url: Proxy URL
• Verify proxy SSL: Enable SSL check
• Tentacle IP: IP of the Tentacle server to which the agent data will be sent. Normally, this parameter will not be modified.
• Tentacle port: Port of the Tentacle server to which the data will be sent. Normally, this parameter will not be modified.
• Tentacle extra options: Additional options for sending data via the Tentacle client. Normally, this parameter will not be modified.

Finally, you can adjust the monitoring settings as desired:

• Agent name: Name of the agent that will contain the modules (only if Agent per item is not enabled)

• Use prefix for modules: To specify a prefix for the modules created

• Prefix for modules created: Prefix for the modules created

• Use prefix for agents: To specify a prefix for the agents created

   

• Prefix for agents created: Prefix for agents created
• Regexp to filter modules: Enable to specify a regexp pattern
• Allow regexp: Regexp pattern. Backups of items that match the pattern will be monitored
• Regexp to discard modules: Enable to specify a regexp pattern
• Deny regexp: Regexp pattern. Backups of items that match the pattern will be discarded
• Agent per item: Enable to create an agent for each item that will contain its backups
• Debug mode: Enable to obtain more information in the task execution output

Successfully completed tasks will have an execution summary with the following information:

• Total agents: Total number of agents generated by the task.

Tasks that are not successfully completed will have an execution summary recording the errors that occurred.
