Installing Configurations

The first stage is designed to automate the deployment and configuration of dependent objects for the Smart Code module. Configuration is performed using the make_smart_code.py utility. The utility is provided in the smart_code_ko_maker package and located in the bin directory. The utility performs the following tasks:

1. Deployment of knowledge objects (Smart Monitor entities)
2. Creation of index templates
3. Creation of indexes
4. Deployment of ISM (Index State Management) policies
5. Loading interface types from a CSV file

Requirements:

1. Python 3.x
2. Installed dependencies: requests, urllib3
3. Access to the Smart Monitor cluster with administrator credentials

Utility Structure

The script contains the following directory structure:

./
├── data/                                           # Main directory with configurations
│   ├── sm_*/                                       # Directories with `Smart Monitor` entities (starting with sm_)
│   ├── index_templates/                            # Index templates
│   ├── indexes/                                    # Index configurations
│   └── ism_policies/                               # Index state management policies
└── lookups/
    └── dim_continent_interface_iftype.csv          # CSV file with interface types for "Continent" family equipment

File Formats

warning

Index settings (indexes) and policies (ism_policies) are for demonstration purposes and must be adjusted to meet installation requirements regarding data rotation and replication configuration.

1. Smart Monitor Entities (in sm_* directories): JSON files with metadata in the _meta field and a unique identifier
2. Index Templates (index_templates):

   {
     "name": "template_name",
     "index_template": {
   	// template configuration
     }
   }

3. Indexes (indexes):

   {
     "index_name": {
   	// index configuration
     }
   }

4. ISM Policies (ism_policies):

   {
     "policy": {
   	"policy_id": "policy_name",
   	// remaining configuration
     }
   }

5. Interface Types (dim_continent_interface_iftype.csv): Current list of interface types for equipment from the Continent family

Installation Sequence

1. Running Configuration Installation

Installation is performed by running the make_smart_code.py:

python make_smart_code.py --sm_host <host> --sm_user <user> --sm_password <password> [--sm_port <port>]

Command line parameters:

Parameter	Required	Type	Default Value	Description
--sm_host	Yes	str	-	Smart Monitor host (one of the cluster nodes)
--sm_port	No	int	9200	Smart Monitor port
--sm_user	Yes	str	-	Username
--sm_password	Yes	str	-	User password

Example execution:

python make_smart_code.py --sm_host open-search-host-1.my_company.ru --sm_user admin --sm_password securepassword --sm_port 9200

2. Verifying Configuration Application

1. In the Index Policies (Main menu - Settings - Index Management - Index Policies) policies are displayed sns-ism, continent-ism, continent-trash:
2. In the Managed Indexes section (Main menu - Settings - Index Management- Managed Indexes), the module indexes managed by the policies from step 1 are displayed::

Index Name	Policy
continent-clients-database-000001	continent-ism
continent-info-snmp-000001	continent-ism
continent-info-syslog-000001	continent-ism
continent-interface-info-snmp-000001	continent-ism
continent-interface-ip-snmp-000001	continent-ism
continent-interface-stats-snmp-000001	continent-ism
continent-ips-syslog-000001	continent-ism
continent-multiwan-snmp-000001	continent-ism
continent-pair_bond-snmp-000001	continent-ism
continent-sd-database-000001	continent-ism
continent-sd-snmp-000001	continent-ism
continent-sd-syslog-000001	continent-ism
continent-trash-syslog-000001	continent-trash
sns-mysql-entity_client-000001	sns-ism
sns-mysql-secretnetlog-000001	sns-ism
sns-mysql-serviceualog-000001	sns-ism
sns-syslog-000001	sns-ism

3. In theTemplates section (Main menu - Settings - Index Management - Templates) the module templates are displayed:
4. In the list of directories Directory List (Main menu - Lookup Manager - Directory List) the module directories are displayed:
5. The dim_continent_interface_iftype directory contains a list of interface types for equipment from the Continent family
