Linux Inventory Event Monitor​

The Linux Inventory Event Monitor updates the inventory data for the selected Linux systems.

Overview​

The Linux Inventory Event Monitor scans the systems you select and collects or refreshes inventory data for each of them. Inventory data includes the number of CPU cores, their frequencies, lists of partitions, installed RAM, installed applications, installed packages, and more. This information is made available on the Inventory tab of each of your network devices and in the inventory reports.

The event monitor works automatically by connecting to your network devices using the credentials that you select and gathering inventory data, so it has very few required settings.

Use Cases​

  • Automatically collecting inventory data
  • Populating the inventory tab for Linux devices

Monitoring Options​

This event monitor provides the following options:

  • Don't warn if the device cannot be contacted: Select this option to tell the event monitor not to warn if it can't contact a selected network device. It's usually a good idea to enable this option because your monitoring configuration will likely have another event monitor to alert if systems are down. If a system is down, its inventory data can be refreshed on the next run.

Authentication and Security​

The account used for authentication must have interactive login rights via SSH.
