Connector Activation Criteria

The LinuxOS connector will be automatically activated, and its status will be reported as OK if all the below criteria are met:

  • The command below succeeds on the monitored host
    • Command: /usr/bin/uname -o || /bin/uname -o
    • Output contains: GNU/Linux (regex)
