Dump


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

/datasentinel/soft/datasentinel_backend/scripts/dump_config.sh

The script is run automatically by the daily backup script.

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

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

- 1 Roles saved in file dump_roles.txt

- 2 User Settings saved in file dump_user_settings.txt

- 9 Agentless Connections saved in file dump_agentless_connections.txt

- 1 Alert Rules saved in file dump_alert_rules.txt

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.

Example with curl
curl -X POST 'http://localhost:8216/write?db=datasentinel' --data-binary @dump_user_settings.txt

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
