Logmon with URL scan does not count matches correctly

Products

• DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

We have created a login profile that scans a URL obtained from the url_response probe.

This profile counts matches and posts them to QoS. However, we have noticed that logmon is only counting the first match.

We have tested this manually and in our test environment, and the results are the same.

Although the count matches option works with a log file, it does not seem to function as expected when using url mode.

Environment

DX UIM: 20.4.X/23.4.X

 logmon version: 4.20

Cause

Probe code Defect

Resolution

The issue has been resolved with the release of logmon 4.22.

 

Additional Information

• (From logmon v4.22) URL Count All Matches:

   Enable this checkbox to raise the alarm based on the total count of matching strings within the URL content.

  For Example:

   Enable this checkbox to monitor all instances of the string "Broadcom" within the content of the URL https://techdocs.broadcom.com/
