How to determine if Foglight is not ingesting data?

Here's a short and authentic reply for how to determine if Foglight isn't ingesting data:

There are a few ways to check if Foglight isn't ingesting data:

• Monitor dashboards & reports: Look for missing data or unexpected dips in data flow within your Foglight dashboards and reports.
• Agent health: Check the health status of your Foglight agents. Unhealthy agents might indicate issues with data collection.
• Alerts: Many Foglight deployments have built-in alerts that trigger when data ingestion stops. Review your alert logs for any data collection errors.
• Server logs: Dig into the Foglight server logs for any errors koows or warnings related to data ingestion.

Thank you for your reply.

• Dashboards is not an option for us. This has to be an automated solution.
• Agent health status is set to OK so we cannot use this as a flag.
• Which built-in Alert are you referring to? I am not able to find it.
• The server that is not sending data has the following entry in the Foglight log file:
  • 2024-03-20 10:27:52.037 VERBOSE [FglAM:IncomingMessageResponse[7]-16777] com.quest.glue.adapter.service.handlers.AgentCallbackResultHandler - Agent callback for FL_Agent FAKE_NAME completed successfully

We are not using email alerts from Foglight so our only options would be the Rest API or directly querying the FL tables.

Thank you.
