Token Update

This script allows you to update the license (aka token). You can also perform this action directly from the UI. (Refer to Documentation)

Registered Agents

This displays agents currently registered in the platform as well as their version, the memory used, and the number of instances they monitor

Inventory

This displays all instances registered on the platform, regardless of whether they are agent-based or agentless

Dump

The script extracts roles, user settings, agentless connections, alert rules and outputs them in InfluxQL format.

The script is run automatically by the daily backup script.

Separate dump*.txt files are created in the current directory.

You can also specify a custom directory by providing the path as a parameter when executing the script.

You can then import one or multiple files into a different platform, for example.

A successful execution of the curl command is indicated by it returning no result

When importing agentless connections, it is imperative to restart the datasentinel_dispatcher service

Agentless Method

At Datasentinel, we offer an Agentless approach to remotely connect with your PostgreSQL clusters. Our platform launches one or more internal agents (depending on the number of monitored instances) on the server to collect and transmit metrics to the backend. Configuration is performed directly via the UI or through the API.

Additionally, we offer three scripts that list internal agents and their monitored connections.

Remote Connections

This displays remote connections configured with the agentless mode

Internal Agents

This displays the internal agents used by the agentless method.

Internal Agents and Connections

This displays both the internal agents used by the Agentless method, and their associated connections.
