API: Monitoring settings / Host / Service etc.

[STiAT]

Hi there,

we've a reporting requirement for certification to report what metrics are monitored (and especially where was something changed, so a history of configurations):

• The globally defined settings (in example disk percent 97 % for 3 out of 3 tries)
• The globally undefined ("automatic") settings (which metrics are automatic)
• The overrides / Host (in example disk percent 99.9 % for 3 out of 3 tries) set on a single host
• Global filesystem exceptions
• Per-Host Filesystem exceptions
• Global process monitoring settings
• Per-Host process monitoring overrides

To get to that I looked at:

• Timeseries API
• Metricv2 API
• Entityv2 API
• anomalyDetection Config-Api

The closest is the anomalyDetection Config-API, but I do not see a way to get those definitions on a per-host basis, or am I missing something?

Best regards,

Georg

if you want to see the settings a per level view, try the following: 

if you want to see who and what was changed, you should be able to see that via the audit log as well.

I mentioned the anomalyDetection, and it only tells the anomalyDetection on a global scale, not the host-based sacele.

Audit API is good... well, but I basically need a snapshot "at a time", which this can not deliver except if I track the changes properly myself.
