Overview

Executing predefined commands (also remotely) on hosts without having access to them can be very useful in many situations. For example, a first level support agent using NetEye may need to restart a Windows service on a Windows host without access to it.

The Command Orchestrator module lets the NetEye admin define Commands and Groups of Commands which can be assigned to other non-admin NetEye users, who will then be able to execute them through the Command Orchestrator module itself.

Note

The configuration of the Command Orchestrator can be currently carried out from the command line only.

Architecture of the Command Orchestrator Module

The Command Orchestrator Manager module is based on three main objects: the Command, the Command Group, Command Parameter. Each Command must belong to a Command Group, and Command Groups can be sub-groups of other Command Groups.

  • A Command defines the execution of a command and is composed of:

    • a name for the command

    • a command type, which defines if the Command is to be executed remotely, locally on NetEye, or if it is a web link.

    • a command, which is the actual executable to be executed on the host

    • some command parameters that define with which parameters the Command must be launched. A parameter of the Command can also be a macro, whose value will be chosen by the user who executes the command. The possible values for each macro have to be declared in the Command Parameter objects.

    • a monitoring object filter that defines on which hosts the command can be executed

    • the Command Group which the Command is part of

  • A Command Group permits to create groups of Commands, for an easier management. It can either be at the top of the hierarchy of the Command Groups, or can be a child of another Command Group.

  • A Command Parameter defines which are the possible values that a macro (a dynamic Command parameter) can take when a user executes a Command. The administrator defines in the Command Parameter object if the macro can take either any numeric value, or any string value coming from a predefined list of strings.
