lm-logs-gcp(beta)

Google Cloud Platform integration to send logs to LogicMonitor

Prerequisites

• LogicMonitor API access tokens.
• We support VM Instance logs only.

Installation instructions

Click Activate Cloud Shell on the top right. This opens the Cloud Shell Terminal below the workspace.

In the Terminal, run the following commands to select the project.

gcloud config set project [PROJECT_ID]

Run the following to install the integration:

source <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/logicmonitor/lm-logs-gcp/master/script/gcp.sh) && deploy_lm-logs

Installing the integration creates these resources:

• PubSub topic named export-logs-to-lm and a pull subscription.
• Virtual Machine (VM) named lm-logs-forwarder.

Note: You will be prompted to confirm the region where the VM is deployed. This should be configured by default within your project.

After the script is completed, go to the VM named lm-logs-forwarder:

Compute Engine > VM Instances > (select LM-Logs-forward) > Remote access > (Select SSH)

SSH into it and run the following command.

export GCP_PROJECT_ID="${GCP_PROJECT_ID}"
export LM_COMPANY_NAME="${LM_COMPANY_NAME}"
export LM_ACCESS_ID="${LM_ACCESS_ID}"
export LM_ACCESS_KEY="${LM_ACCESS_KEY}"

source <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/logicmonitor/lm-logs-gcp/master/script/vm.sh)

Export logs from Logging to Pub Sub

• Go to the Logging page and filter the logs that need to be exported.
• Click Actions > Create sink and under Sink details, provide the name.
• Under Sink destination, choose Cloud Pub/Sub as the destination and select export-logs-to-lm. Note: The pub/sub can be located in a different project.
• Click Create sink.

If there are no issues you should see the logs stream into the Logs page in LogicMonitor.

Removing the integration

Run the following commands to delete the integration and all its resources:

source <(curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/logicmonitor/lm-logs-gcp/master/script/gcp.sh) && delete_lm-logs
