Bug Fix in Tornado Module We solved an issue in Tornado’s rule configuration where the action_name field in director actions was being cleared after saving and deploying. When users created a rule with a director action and filled in both action_name and action_payload, the action_name value would disappear upon returning to the rule configuration. This…

Automating Notifications in NetEye
Today we continue our journey into monitoring automation in NetEye. In my previous post we discussed the possibility of automating Business Processes. As you may remember, for those of us working on NetEye Cloud monitoring dozens of clients, it’s important to be able to standardize and automate the creation of BPs to have a consistent…
Read MoreRoot Cause Analysis with Elastic ML and Alyvix
When performance degradation occurs within a complex system, understanding the root cause can be extremely challenging. If the issue happens sporadically, this difficulty increases even more. This is because modern systems involve numerous components that interact in complex ways. For example, if your application’s Web UI becomes slow, the underlying cause could be anywhere in…
Read MoreFrom Patch to Package: How a Small Fix Becomes a Trusted RPM
At first glance, rebuilding an RPM may sound like a purely mechanical task: take a patch, rebuild the package, ship it. In reality, that small fix goes through a much longer journey that touches reliability, security, trust, and long-term maintainability. In this article, we’ll walk through what really happens when a tiny upstream patch needs…
Read MoreMonitoring Your NetApp S3 Object Storage
Introduction to NetApp and S3 NetApp offers a unified data storage system. NetApp’s ONTAP operating system supports a combination of file, block, and object protocols. We can use common storage (disk array), such as NetApp AFF or FAS, and operate it as file, object, and block storage. On an existing ONTAP cluster, we can enable…
Read MoreRunning the Icinga Agent as SYSTEM? No Thanks.
A safer way to run privileged Windows checks with SystemRunner If you’ve been monitoring Windows for a while, you’ve probably seen this pattern: some checks must run as LocalSystem (S-1-5-18), and the “quick fix” is to run the Icinga Agent itself as SYSTEM. It works. It’s also a really bad idea. Why? SystemRunner takes a…
Read MoreHow to Fix Transformation Problems After Upgrading to Elasticsearch 9.0
With the upgrade to NetEye 4.44, we’ve added a lot of new features (https://www.neteye-blog.com/2025/10/neteye-4-44-release-notes/) and, from my point of view, one of the most relevant is the introduction of Elastic Stack 9. This Elasticsearch major release (https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elastic-stack/9.0/elastic-stack-release-notes.html) includes some new functionalities such as: ESQL Lookup Joins , LogsDB Index Mode Optimizations, etc. During various migrations…
Read MoreBusiness Process Automation on NetEye
In NetEye, ‘business processes’ is a module used to model and monitor the business process hierarchy to obtain a high-level view of the status of critical applications. In short, they allow monitoring controls of individual components to be aggregated into a single screen, creating customized dashboards and generating notifications at the process level, rather than…
Read MoreSegregating APM Data in Elastic: A Practical Guide to a Not-So-Obvious Challenge
If you’ve worked with Elastic APM, you’re probably familiar with the APM Server: a component that collects telemetry data from APM Agents deployed across your infrastructure. But what happens when you need to segregate that data by tenant, especially in complex network zones? Let’s walk through a real-world scenario and how we tackled it. The…
Read MoreCron Job Monitoring with Tornado (Part 2)
In the first part we created hosts and services to monitor a sequence of script using Tornado. The Tornado Rule Now let’s continue with the creation of a Tornado rule: open the NetEye web interface and select Tornado dashboard, then open the processing tree and select Edit mode On. Add a filter with an appropriate…
Read MoreNEP Telegram Notification
Some time ago, my colleague Giuseppe Di Garbo published this article on the NetEye Blog, where he explained how to integrate NetEye notifications with Telegram. It was a great starting point, and in fact many of us used it to enable NetEye’s notification system to send alerts directly to the Telegram app for many customers….
Read MoreContent Security Policy (CSP) + NetEye 4.42
In the latest update to NetEye 4.42, we’re excited to announce the introduction of support for the Content-Security-Policy (CSP) header within the Icinga Web 2 interface. This enhancement plays a crucial role in strengthening your system’s defenses against cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks by controlling what resources a browser is allowed to load. What is Content…

Choosing the right backup solution is critical for system administrators and IT professionals. The upcoming NetEye 4.41 version will bring an update to MariaDB, moving from version 10.3 to 10.11. This makes it especially timely to explore the opportunities offered by the Mariabackup tool in order to be fully prepared for the changes ahead. This…
Read MoreCron Job Monitoring with Tornado
In NetEye environments we use Tornado to collect events, elaborate on them, and send notifications based on them from a lot of sources (syslog, email, SNMP traps and so on). In this article I’d like to suggest a different use case: how to use Tornado to monitor your cron jobs. In our example we want…
