How to consult the Status of the Data collector devices in Performance Management?

[Jose Carlos Montes De Oca Luna]

Good morning community.

I have a question: it is about performing a query where I can extract all the DC devices from an environment and have the "Status" Field since the information on these comes as UP or Down. Could you help me by sharing information for this execution.

Greetings!

Hi Jose Carlos,

you can use the Data Aggregator REST API to get information about the Data collectors

http://da:8581/rest/dcms

You can filter the returned information using the filtered endpoint and the corresponding "Select" payload

http://da:8581/rest/dcms/filtered

Example:

curl -u admin:<password> -H "Content-Type: application/xml" http://da:8581/rest/dcms/filtered -d'<FilterSelect xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="filter.xsd">
<Select use="exclude" isa="exclude">
        <DataCollectionMgrInfo use="exclude">
                <CollectorState use="include"/>
                <HostName use="include"/>
        </DataCollectionMgrInfo>
        <DataCollectorPollingInfo use="exclude">
                <Status use="include"/>
        </DataCollectorPollingInfo>
</Select>
</FilterSelect>'

Hello Vincent

 

Maybe I haven't understood it, but what I'm looking for is to extract an inventory where the hostname, IP, and Status come from. Just as the image appears.

 

For example, this value I want obtain it in an export

 Thank you

Hi Jose Carlos,

You can get that information using the devices endpoint in the REST API.

curl -u <user>:<pass> -H "Content-Type: application/xml" http://da:8581/rest/devices/filtered -d'<FilterSelect xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="filter.xsd">
        <Select use="exclude" isa="exclude">
                <Device use="exclude">
                        <ContactStatus use="include"/>
                        <PrimaryIPAddress use="include"/>
                </Device>
                <Item use="exclude">
                        <Name use="include"/>
                </Item>
        </Select>
</FilterSelect>'
