Cassandra probe not showing options for QOS

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

 I have installed the cassandra_monitor probe however, I see no option to enable any metrics or alarms in the Admin console.

I can see the Cassandra server node in the GUI, but when I click to expand it, the options are not displayed for any QoS metrics or alarms. It expands into a blank screen.

Environment

DX UIM 20.4.* / 23.4.* 

Cassandra probe any version

Cause

In many cases Cassandra has been installed to a non-default location and this will need to be changed to reflect the appropriate paths for the Cassandra installation and the appropriate subfolders underneath the root:

 

This can be changed using Raw Configure:
